The mixing nozzle may be a great idea but it makes using the caulk gun a real hand workout. It appears to have worked well on the bottom of the boat but it has yet to be put in water. My only issue was with the application and it was challenging. Very challenging. Time will tell if I would recommend this product.

I used this Epoxy to seal up 4 leaking rivets. I used as instructed and cleaned aluminium with etch wash. Was able to apply epoxy with boat on the trailer. I have used the boat 11 times in 3 weeks and no leaking so far so I am happy so far with the results.
