Today we are joined by Wessex Resin's David Johnson, a well known expert in boatbuilding and resins. We'll have to have him back another day as we barely touched the surface of his encyclopedic knowledge! Today we discussed, among other things, the new West System 207 hardener formulation, preparation of wooden surfaces, the importance of fine margins in achieving superior results and a few common user problems.

In today's episode Martin and Nick discuss the fine art of matching new gelcoat to old boats, big news from Scott Bader, and much talk of recycling and where old wind turbine blades go to die.

In the first episode of Composites Cast Monthly we chat about all things composites, including how to make a fibreglass shower tray, The Spider Goats of Utah (not a band), and our boss Gary drops in for a chat about how he got started selling fibreglass! If you'd like to get in touch with us to ask a question for our Q&A section, or for anything to do with the podcast its compositescast@gmail.com Hope you enjoy it!
