I am intrigued and thanks for this very informative vid. I am now looking forward to getting started and making some sick fins.

I used to do gel and silk nails and it’s interesting how similar these processes are. The filing process in particular is what builds the strength of a nail enhancement, and if I’m understanding this correctly, the filing process is what builds power/steering ability into a fin? I’m in TN note and learning to refinish my old epoxy surfboard. Maybe I’ll try to make my own replacement fins next so that when I make it out to the Atlantic again, I can welcome my board back home. Awesome video. Thank you for sharing your knowledge, and really, your art! Beautiful work.

Thank you for sharing your knowledge. I really appreciate it. I tried to make the layered panel 2 times but either I failed for piling up the layer. Could I ask you for advice? First time, I used Entropy CLR resin with CLX and while I was layering it up it started hardening so It was clear that I did choose wrong hardener. CLX is extra fast hardener. Then I tried again, with West system 105 + 207. According to the mechanical sheets it said usable time is 100 to 120 mins but after 20 or 25 mins it started hardening so I couldn't make it again. Could you let me know which resin and hardener do you use?! Should I use Entropy CLR resin + Slow hardener or maybe CCR Casting resin? Thank you

Never use casting resin. I use entropy CLR and CLS slow cure hardener. I never mix more than 40-50 ounces at once, despite what it may say on the epoxy’s spec sheet, it will go off quicker in a container where the volume is concentrated, especially with CLX. Epoxy takes time, and it is worth it to give yourself that room for error when starting and use slow cure hardener.

@@hydrophilesurfcraft Thank you for reply! it helps a lot to me I mixed it just 1L like 40oz but while I was working it went hardened so fast;; I rekon I need at least 1 hour for working Could I ask how long it takes for layering up in your side? By the way, I will try CLR with slow hardener!! I will keep you posted! Thank you so much

@@user-kq2dl2zz6y 40oz, but with CLX, it will go off much quicker than CLS. If I am doing a full 30”x30” fin panel, I will mix in batches of about 40-50oz of resin, which will get me through about 7-9 layers of cloth and take about 20-25 minutes. Anything beyond that, and you are mixing too much epoxy, in my humble opinion.

What is the spray you use at the end please? And any chance that writing will rub/break off
@hydrophilesurfcraft 4 ай бұрын
It’s a spray varnish I’m not sticking with, so I won’t bother divulging what it is. I’d recommend something made for bonding to plastics. The stamp and writing are done with permanent ink, some last longer than others. Depends on how the fins are stored and treated.

Sorry if this is a repeated question but what’s the spray finish you use? Do you need that for a fiberglass fin or is it more to protect your stamp and labeling?
@hydrophilesurfcraft 7 ай бұрын
I’m not satisfied with what I have been using, but it’s a spray varnish. It is totally unnecessary, a glass and resin fin needs no sealant, but this step brightens the colors a bit, which is sometimes nice.
@hydrophilesurfcraft 7 ай бұрын
That said, the finish from the product I use has been great, but aerosol cans are wasteful and an added environmental problem I don’t need to add to my process.

Most people do. I started working with Entropy because it doesn’t inundate my home with toxic fumes. Now, I prefer the flex, strength, and memory of an epoxy fin. Skis and snowboards are made with epoxy for a reason.

Sam of finflex has cut layers rough to shape and laminated them to reduce waste, etc. He’s also recently been laying up a couple layers of glass into a thin sheet, then cutting those layer by layer and then gluing those “veneers” together to create a similar result. Thanks for digging in!
