Wood Rot Repair Epoxy is ideal for consolidating rotted wood. Repairing this spray rail starts with drying the wood (below 12%) helps the epoxy bond to the wood better and minimizes potential for continued rot growth. The Wood Rot Repair Epoxy is applied in a multiple-coat application to provide time for the epoxy to saturate the wood and prevent the epoxy from overheating. Waiting for the epoxy to reach the tacky stage will provide an optimal bonding between layers.

Wood Rot Repair Epoxy is an excellent addition to the WEST SYSTEM Epoxy line for boat owners, home restorations, and anyone dealing with wood rot repairs.
