Not a boat question, but I have an old set of fiberglass mooring whips that I guess have lost their coating. You get a hand full of glass when touched. What do I want to coat them with? Thanks

I enjoy the forum but I am not a regular contributor. I have always enjoyed your input on the forum and am glad to have you back. Like Mr. Hodga, I too had been wondering why we had not heard from you in a long while. I am very sorry to hear of the circumstances for your absence and welcome you back. Many of your inputs from the past such as the videos on your boat restorations , etc. have been sorely missed. As time permits, please bring us up to date as you tackle "new' projects.

I also think that epoxy or fiberglass is the best solution! Much is written here and here! I myself often use epoxy resin, it perfectly solves the problem!

whatever you do, be sure to sand and prep the fiberglass properly before applying the new coating. Wear proper skin and eye protection - avoid getting glass fibers in your skin. Re-coating the whips annually will maintain the protective geometry dash barrier
