Marine Tex RM320K Rapid-Set Epoxy Putty, 2 oz, Gray
Marine Tex RM320K Rapid-Set Epoxy Putty is a two-part, 1:1 epoxy paste built for fast, high-strength repairs on boats and equipment. It handles like putty, hardens like steel, and sands like wood, making it suited for filling, bonding, and rebuilding fiberglass, wood, ceramic, glass, metal, masonry, and many hard plastics. The Rapid-Set formula cures in just one hour at 72 degrees Fahrenheit, so it is designed for quick mechanical repairs dockside or at sea, getting a boat back underway with minimum downtime. It can also be used to secure hardware and loose fasteners.
To use, mix the two components in equal amounts with a putty stick or hard plastic squeegee on a broad, flat surface. Mix only enough for the 5-minute nominal working time. Once thoroughly combined, spread the gray putty into a long thin line to keep the consistency streak-free and maximize working time. Near the end of the working window the mixture becomes noticeably warm, at which point any unused material should be discarded. This 2 oz kit is packaged for one-time mixing and use.
