(S)3 Quart Kit Silvertip Laminating Epoxy and Hardener
System Three Silvertip epoxies are our preferred epoxies for boat building. The laminating resin system is perfectly clear and easy to use. It also is a blush free epoxy making boat building much simpler by not having to deal with blush between coats.
The System Three Silvertip Epoxy also features an easy to use 2:1 mix ratio that can be dispensed with plunger pumps or by measuring.
More information on using epoxies can be found in the Epoxy Book

18 lineal feet of 1 x 4
11 yards 50" wide 6oz Glass Cloth

Quick Cure 5 minute epoxy, Goof Proof, 50 ml cartridge
Use for installing bungs, repairing stape holes, "tack welding" wood, and for other glue jobs that require a fast cure. Use only below the waterline only when covered by an over coating of a water proof epoxy.
The 50ml cartridge fits the Goof Proof Gun for easy dispensing of epoxy and minimal waste.
Cab-o-sil, also know as Aerosil, colloidial silica, or silicone dioxide, is a common inert filler. It is a fumed silica that when introduced into fluids, such as resin, acts as a thickening agent.
Use to add thix properties to resins, to thicken a resin to a desired consistency, or to make putties.
For fairing putties use 3M bubbles or Phenolic Microballoons then add just enough cabosil to get the desired properties. Putties made from resin and cabosil alone are difficult to sand.
