Can you recommend an epoxy resin that does not react with EPS foam? I'm undertaking simple repair of a Stand up Paddle board which has an EPS core.
I will be mixing the resin with Micro filler balls to reduce the density of the repair. Max repair depth will be
20mm X area 30X30mm. Can this the cured in one application?

That's a very thick repair, can't you pack out the depth with epoxied in foam to reduce the epoxy thickness?
Polyester resin reacts with EPS, epoxy won't react.
