BoatLIFE 1065 – “Git” Rot Kit – Quart

The BoatLIFE “Git” Rot Kit is a trusted solution for repairing dry rot. This kit includes a penetrating adhesive-flexible sealant called “Git” Rot, which works to restore the strength of rotted wood. By pouring into small openings, the “Git” Rot penetrates deeply and saturates the affected wood, halting the progress of dry rot by encapsulating the wood fibers. Once cured, it forms a resilient adhesive that bonds the wood together, creating a stronger structure than before.

The BoatLIFE “Git” Rot Kit is particularly suitable for repairing wood that is enveloped by fiberglass, such as transoms, stringers, and keels.
