Reply to: Finishing and Sealing Hulls

[quote=klozhald][quote=jgregs]2) In the hull lids, despite being glued down, there is a slight gap in places where the adhesive didn't squeeze out and/or the fit wasn't perfect. Someone elsewhere said a marine grade silicone could be used to fill these tiny gaps. In my head it makes sense that you would address this prior to finishing but then silicone doesn't seem like the right solution. Fairing compound maybe?[/quote] To confirm, you are talking about the deck on the hulls, not the lids of the round ports on top of the hulls? Silicone is a poor choice as is will break down and leak as the hull and deck flex differently under stress. Enlarge the space a bit with a scraper and fill with thickened epoxy.[/quote]
