The doors open for the RYA Dinghy & Watersports Show on 26th February, where WEST SYSTEM and PRO-SET teams will be on-hand to answer any questions, offer advice and run live epoxy demonstrations.

Pick up tips on everything boat maintenance-related, from modifications to your sailing pride and joy, blowing the cobwebs off and starting a renovation project, repairing your dinghy, starting a new build, or find out what products you should have with you at race events to keep you on the water. Our experts will be there to answer your questions.

The WEST SYSTEM® Technical Team will be running a series of live epoxy demonstrations, on stand F60 at the RYA Dinghy & Watersports Show, focussing on the Mini Pack.

The Mini Pack is a one-stop-pack for small repair jobs, and includes resin, hardeners, two fillers, gloves and more. This demonstration will explore how the contents can be used to effect repairs and explores techniques for fileting, bonding and the use of glass reinforcement.
