re: Canoe

No problems with WEST here. I knew Jim Peters, the chemist founded Industrial Formulators of Canada (now sold out to System Three) and he was a very astute man. He was also always available to answer questions and he designed at least two epoxy formulations that had properties not found elsewhere. I used his products for those reasons. The other product was S1 sealer, also still available from System Three. There were others, but those two were the mainstay of my boat building.
