    Fiberglass Patching

    I'm wanting to do a minor patch on the bottom of my fiberglass boat. It's not all the way through, but the scratch is a little deeper than I'd like. Any suggestions for what I should use and how to go about it? Thanks everybody.

    West Systems has some pretty good instructional material. I'd check their website.

    Awesome guys thanks.
    Will I need to put anything over that marine tex to seal it or is it good as soon as it cures? Thanks again!

    PC-11 is another real good waterproof epoxy. It's kinda a paste like Marine Tex, dries white in color, comes in a syringe type dispenser, and sands easy. I can only find it here at Ace Hardware.
