okay so erm...for the endeavour longboat it says to use bitumen and solvent.

can anywaone link to places that sells the correct stuff for model boating?
i looked around but there are so many variations of bitumen, some with added fbires, some without, some trowel applicable others arent and its confusing me.

same with the solvent.

thank you guys n girls.

I did the longboat and stained the gunwale covers with colron before fixing, and left the rubbing strakes natural
