bassguy Posted September 19, 2012 Report Share Posted September 19, 2012 (edited) I found out something the other day. Mixing up my D2T in one of those Glad food storage containers. I cut the container down to about 1/2", and mixed up my D2T enough to do one bait. When I finished up I set it aside and this afternoon, I peeled out the remainder and took a little acetone to remove the rest. The acetone doesn't hurt the plastic and I don't have to search around for something else to mix the epoxy in. I'm going to snatch another from the kitchen and use it when mixing paint for brush highlights. Just thought I'd share.

crzyjunyer Posted September 20, 2012 Report Share Posted September 20, 2012 ive also used the small communion cups sicne early on for mixing paint as well as when i used epoxy as a clear coat - they are transparent so i get a good look at the paint as well as just right for the small cup on my eclipse cs - and at under $20 for 1000 cups cheaply disposable Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joetheplumber Posted September 20, 2012 Report Share Posted September 20, 2012 I use small clear plastic cups as well. You can get the ones I use at the dollar store. Come 10 to a pack and they have lids(3-4 oz). Good for storing/mixing all kinds of stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kelly Posted September 22, 2012 Report Share Posted September 22, 2012 That just made me think of using a sandwich bag to mix the epoxy. Then you could squeeze it around in the bag cut the corner off and squeeze it on. Spread it with the tip of the bag and toss it. It would keep the air out too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gordon Posted September 25, 2012 Report Share Posted September 25, 2012 Good tip. I guess I am not the only one getting into trouble by "snatching" stuff from the kitchen :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
