TotalBoat 5:1 Traditional Epoxy Resin

TotalBoat epoxy resin kits include 5:1 Traditional Epoxy Resin and your choice of 5:1 Fast or Slow Hardener, along with calibrated mixing pumps. Tackle marine fiberglass repairs and other epoxy projects! Choose from Quart, Gallon, and 4.5 Gallon kits with our Fast or Slow hardener.

The tough, water-resistant cure for whatever unfloats your boat:

Have a chainplate that busted out of its bulkhead? A motor mount that came unmounted? Delaminated deck material? Cracks in your cuddy? No matter what shape your ship’s in, there are several projects epoxy can handle. It’s strong and won’t shrink in the face of daunting repairs. Literally. There’s nominal shrinkage, especially in larger repairs like replacing large sections of laminate. TotalBoat 5:1 Epoxy cures to a high-strength, water-resistant solid ideal for use in a variety of epoxy repair and fiberglass projects, including coating, bonding, and laminating. Add our fillers to the resin/hardener mix to get a strong adhesive, or a fairing and filleting compound that sands easily once cured.

Our epoxy resin kits make doing it yourself even easier:

Whether you’re reinstalling berth frames and bulkheads, or you have an old wooden boat that needs some new skin, there’s enough stuff in our kits to make tough projects easier. You get the 5:1 Epoxy Resin and your choice of either Fast or Slow Hardener. Use the Fast Hardener in cooler temperature conditions to give you adequate working time and to speed up the curing time. The Slow Hardener extends the working and cure times in warmer temperatures. These complete, project-ready kits also have a set of calibrated pumps to dole out the resin and hardener in the precise mix of 5 parts resin to 1 part hardener. If you only need the 5:1 Epoxy Resin and Hardener, there’s a kit for that, too.

Our 5:1 epoxy resin kit system is compatible with traditional 5:1 marine epoxy systems:

Still have another brand of resin or hardener left over from previous projects? You can use the TotalBoat 5:1 Epoxy system interchangeably with other traditional 5:1 marine epoxy systems, letting you can mix and match to use up those leftovers.

5:1 epoxy resin kits are interchangeable, but the pumps aren’t:

Our epoxy resin and hardeners are packaged so there’s no wasted product. For example, the Size A 5:1 Epoxy Resin and the Size A Hardener are packaged so when they’re dispensed 5:1 — one push down on the white resin pump and one push down on the black hardener pump — the packages will eventually empty at the same time. When you buy new product, you can reuse your existing pumps, if you’ve kept them. The only thing that isn’t compatible are the pumps. If you’re using our 5:1 Epoxy Resin with another brand of hardener (or vice versa), you have three choices for measuring:

• Use TotalBoat containers and pumps: white for the resin and black for the hardener.
• Use the other brand’s containers and pumps for measuring resin and hardener at a 5:1 ratio.
• Measure the resin and hardener components by volume, not by pumps.

After measuring, just give the mix a good stir for about two minutes to combine thoroughly before applying. When all is said and done — and cured — you’ll get professional results without the professional’s bill.
