It's obvious that what you don't know about boat building and boat repairs would fill ten thousand volumes Flump, and what you think that you do know is dangerous advice for unsuspecting others. Your manners are in a similar state I'm sorry to say.
Woaaahh Darryl...chill - sam's not in on this thread yet. What the flump is saying is well documented. Epoxy adheres better to cured ester resins that ester resins but ester resins adhere to epoxy even less. In this case, I agree that the difference is negligable as it applies to the repair area and that if gel coat will be the end finish method that the same vinylester or polyester resin should be used.
