Aeromarine Epoxies

While I have emailed both jgreer.com and uscomposites.com I have yet
to hear back. I continue to await engineering data, if indeed it is
available.

I wonder if the properties of their materials vary because of constant
slight changes in formulation. This might be possible if they are
changing resins, buying from the lowest bidder.

I was hoping someone experienced with the industry might see this
thread.

The guy you really want to talk to about epoxies is George Applebay in
Moriarty, NM, but I don't think he posts to RAH. He knows how modern
epoxies are formulated, and he's got a hatful of recipes for various
epoxies he makes from bulk stocks.

Thanks again Bob.

I am working to contact George Applebay.

Another industry guy that DOES post to Rec.Boatbuilding is Kern
Hendricks of System3 epoxies. He's remarkably even-handed about the
properties and chemistry, even of competitors.

As of today only George Applebay has responded to email. Neither
jgreer.com nor uscomposites.com have yet responded to requests for
information. I find this surprising though I feel it may not be
conclusively damning.

I have not yet attempted to contact Kern Hendricks. I note he has
made no posts for a very long time.

It does seem a bit puzzling that the two other companies have not
responded.

Call UScomposites. I have found them very helpfull with questions on canoe
building.
