- Product Characteristics
Boat building industry was the creation of a compound that not only has a strong bond, but can flex under the pressure of a rough sea, and still hold everything together. That compound is our Core Bonding Compound (aka CBC). After years of refining, we’ve perfected the product to the point where many boat builders won’t build without it.
