Well I got it mostly rebuilt this weekend and got it sealed up, it will have all week to cure. I thinned out some epoxy with lacquer thinner as Dr. Hydro suggested and it worked out great for my first shot at it. I just mixed the epoxy and added what I thought was enough thinner and got to mixing, it took a while to get the epoxy saturated into the thinner but turned out great. I didn't have a foam brush so I just used a normal paint brush, no problems there.
Nitro-nemesis--- as for the ratio I used of epoxy to thinner I used the bottom from a one gallon milk jug as a container, it had a diagonal line across the bottom, I squeezed in enough epoxy/hardner to cover but not touch the diagonal line and to not touch the walls, so probably about 1/4 the surface area of the bottom in epoxy. I then added about 3/8 of an inch of thinner and mixed. Make sure you move all the epoxy around until there are no lumps or they will get on your brush. The toilet/dunny paper works great, I thought it would stick to the epoxy and make a mess but it doesn't, good thinking Krusty 181!
Thanks for your help guys, I hope to have her on the water late this weekend.
