I've never built any fins, but I used to experiment a little with building things from fibreglass and carbon fibre composites in my teens, and I want to point out that this will not "work just as well for resin". Mortar and tile grout are both water based cements, while plastic resin (polyester or epoxy) is built around totally different chemistry. Randomly adding water-based latex to it will result in a horrible sticky mess.
