Default Hi Rich,

Yes, I spent many hours, days, and years covered in polyester resin, dust, and acetone.... I found it was best used to make parts and then repair them! When filled with micro spheres, it is almost indestructible, but thermal setting resins, like polyester, and even epoxy when used as a glue, seems to have their own issues.. one is shock issues.. you can have an incredibly strong joint, and when stuck hard, it will fracture along a resin line and simply fall off, thus the use of filler, cloth, mat, and laminations... It will work, but as I said before, I think epoxy is most often the stronger of the two.. and some exotic epoxies are incredibly strong...I do think however, the wood glues you selected will work great in this application... Talk to ya soon...til...lat'r....GT
