- Abrasion resistance
Types of Marine Epoxy Fillers
- Microballoons or Microspheres: These lightweight spheres add volume while reducing overall weight, all while maintaining strength.
- Silica: Colloidal silica is commonly used in fairing compounds to create smooth surfaces.

- Epoxy Tinting Pigments: Concentrated colorants that allow you to customize the color of epoxy resins.
Choosing the Right Boat Filler
When selecting a marine epoxy filler or resin additive, consider the following:- Application location (above or below the waterline)
- One-part vs. two-part formulations
- Desired properties of the epoxy mixture (strength, weight, viscosity)
