ok, the fact that no one has said this yet is scary.. maybe I missed it, cause i just read through the posts real fast...
Ok, "Boat Resin" is Epoxy resin. It will stand up to water. "Auto Resin" is Polyester Resin. If you are biulding a sub encloser, you want to use polyester. A Laminating Resin is a resin that has a wax in it (different kinds). Because Polyester Resin is air inhibited (if it is exposed to air, it can not cure properly) they add a wax, so that when it dries, the wax settles on top. Depending on teh type of wax, and type of laminating resin, you can either was off the wax with hot water, or you can sand/scrape it off.
Be carefull what you get, they all act differently. You could end up just making a big mess of your project.
