Hi, just a thought, im sure someone with more experience than me could advise.

What about West Epoxy thickened with Colloidal Silicon , i have found it easier to use than resin as it doesn't run the same way and i believe is stronger? once mixed could be used as a glue and filler.

Hi should have thought this threw before posting. lol

Other advantage is noo need for gel coat as its waterproof and can be coloured all in one go.

Try Scot Glass, Dixon blaze trading estate, Glasgow

I'm sure they stock all West Epoxy products.
