I hate trying to set a puck with the two part epoxy that comes in the tube and you mix up with a popsicle stick. it is a pain to get the air out to get a good seal. I was wondering if anyone has tried the two part body shop gun applied products, like 3M Automix or Fuzor, with any success in mounting these pucks in your hull. I mean if it can hold the roof of your car on it oughta hold up to a transducer. Any thoughts or concerns??

Thanks in advance. TR

I am experimenting with these "Pucking Products" for shoot-thru applications.

I did one with the red stuff last July, and tried the "sports/outdoor" type on another one last October. So far both are still doing great.

The green tube stuff sets up a little more flexible and might be a little more impervious to fuel or oil (only time will tell).

The cool thing is that if it doesn't work then it's easy to clean-up and start over, unlike a big blob of hardened epoxy.

I scuffed the transducer and inner-hull surface with coarse sandpaper, then cleaned with alcohol before sticking it down. No issues with air bubbles as long as you don't get pucking stingy with the Goop.

I think it would work just fine but if there is a problem it's going to be very difficult to remove.
