Is the epoxy solution opaque, or if I use it without the fiberglass will the dark chip show through?

It is semi-opaque, I would say, the thinner the layer, more translucent it is . If you can apply at least 1/16 or more of the solution above the chip, I don't think you will notice it.

Hi Partybot, I used navy blue over black vinyl. I got rid of most of the black but it does wear through here and there so I would think it would take many many coats to make it highly opaque.

On the other side of the 12"x12" single sided Copper PC Board is a fairly smooth, light "Olive" color film type coating. In between the Copper clad side and the olive color side is definitely a fiberglass resin type material. The opposite side is a smooth light olive coating to seal the fiberglass inbetween. I hope this answers your question.

No, it's darker than clear glass and slightly mirrored on both sides. It's definitely not "invisible."

Yes it will work. Make sure after you apply the epoxy, give it about a day to setup. Use a sponge to smooth out the chipped area.

It's not like glass, let's say. There's a diagonal ridge pattern which helps things not slide and fall over and you notice it. You can see thru the liner -- kind of like light fog.

No. It is slightly translucent, but since in many applications it should not be visible at all, it doesn't matter.

The epoxy will seal into porous substances no problem you will have to do it in layers over a couple of days. My only concern would be leaching from the epoxy itself for that you would need the MSDS sheets. If you contact the folks at AreoMarine they will get it for you very friendly group of people.

The acid etch solution is in the epoxy kit, unless you just want a shiny floor i would recommend Epoxy. you can color it to your preference and also get flakes if you like that (i didn't at first want it but turned out really good). Also if you are in California like i am - this is no longer allowed all local places pulled it from shelves and i luckily found online before they stopped shipping to california as well. Good luck!

No, Make sure you clean the heck out of surface to use epoxy on. Silicon residue will cause problems. Use J-B WELD EPOXY. Play with it first.

It is transparent clear with a gloss. Use Con-tact brand clear if you want a clear with the Matte finish

It's practically completely opaque. It has a highly reflective surface. You'll see a reflection of what is on it, but not what is underneath it.

I would recommend a silicon sealer when installing this item; also my application through hull on my fiberglass boat was no problem; There is adequate allowance for the thickness of any vehicle auto or marine; Just make sure that the surface is not curved when the hole is drilled in order to avoid slippage and any potential leak.

Its "clear" but its not transparent. Its got all the duct tape texture so you can't see through it completely but its definitely not colored.

I am writing as a man with 35 years experience in the plastics industry. The base material is essentially clear before processing. Color concentrate (and most likely UV inhibitor) is added during extrusion which gives it the strong blue tint, but it is not enough to make the product opaque.

This product is meant for filling small imperfections prior to painting. It has no structural strength. You will need a two part epoxy or better yet, a two part reinforced fiberglass product for your repair. Fiberglass/Evercoat makes a reinforced fiberglass product that is excellent. There may be products that say they can be sanded and drilled.

STOP!!!!!!Sorry Larry, I thought you were talking about another item. No it's not clear although it's opaque. It's good quality stuff though. I built a workshop space in my garage and it works well. Keeps area contained, is heavy and help keep material in/out and can create a space that's useful with a space heater in winter or fan in summer.
