mark poulson Posted May 3, 2012 Report Share Posted May 3, 2012 Just be sure you mix the epoxy well before you add the alcohol. If not, the alcohol will bond to one part of the 2 part epoxy, and prevent it from bonding to the other part. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psilvers Posted May 3, 2012 Report Share Posted May 3, 2012 Good advice on the denatured alcohol. Just remember that it doesn't take much. For example, if you start with one part of resin and one part hardener each being about the size of a quarter - just add a couple of drops of alcohol using an eye dropper and stir well. As Mark noted, mix both parts of the epoxy FIRST, then add the alcohol and mix again. Pete Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
