To help ensure a proper cure, use the calibrated pumps to measure and dispense the exact 5:1 mix ratio, by volume. All it takes is ONE PUMP of HARDENER to every ONE PUMP OF RESIN. Pump instructions are included, for easy reference.

What’s the difference between 5:1 Fast and 5:1 Slow Hardener?

In cooler temperature conditions, use the 5:1 Fast Hardener to speed up curing time while still providing adequate working time. The Slow Hardener extends the working and cure times in warmer temperatures. Slow Hardener is not recommended for use in cool temperatures.

The TotalBoat 5:1 Epoxy System Lets You Do It All


Layups & Laminating Wets out reinforcement fabrics easily. Thin film and self-leveling are ideal for coating and laminating. Great for layups to create composite parts.	Bonding, Filleting, & Tabbing Bonds with composites, wood, and metals. Perfect for high-strength, tabbed joints. Add a filler to form strong, smooth fillets.	Filling & Fairing Viscosity is excellent for filling holes. Add thickening agents to create a strong fairing compound. Easy to sand and shape, once cured.

It all started simply enough. As boaters, we wanted better stuff for our own boats.

Even our favorite products, the ones we’d come to rely on, had room for improvement. It’d be nice if they could hold up longer, cure faster, coat better, apply easier, and—since we all know boat ownership creates a mini maelstrom in your pocket—cost less. So we took everything we knew from 35 years of customer feedback, combined that with our own boating knowledge, and after a few years of rigorous R&D, TotalBoat was born. Launched, rather. By boaters, for boaters.

Need help? The members of our TotalBoat Tech Team are boat owners who really know their stuff. So whether you’re trying to figure out what to buy or the best solution for your particular project, they have years of hands-on training, experience, and a passion to help you succeed.
