What kind of epoxy should I get for use on my board? Sorry for not searching, I'm on my phone.

If you have a larger dent that needs filled look into getting some micro-balloons to mix in with the epoxy.This helps two ways,1st it makes the epoxy thicker,so it stays in place better,2nd it is easier to sand.You can find micro-balloons at hobby shops in small amounts,Sig Mfg. makes it for model airplane construction.

I use a 30 minute epoxy, it is far easier to work with since 5 minutes is just not enough time to mix the epoxy, work it into the crack, and then clamp it. I really want to be able to get the epoxy into the crack and have found that the 5 minutes epoxies set too quickly. Look for a 30 minutes epoxy that says it works on fiberglass, I am not sure what brand I use, but I have seen it at hardware stores. I use aluminum foil to protect the clamp from the epoxy, I use quick clamps with the rubber jaws.
