Silo1688 Posted September 20, 2014 Report Share Posted September 20, 2014 Hey everyone. I was doing some searching about Devon 2 Ton and I noticed there was two different packaging. I was wondering if they were the same. Devcon 2 Ton: Home (clear) and the Devcon 2 Ton: All Purpose (clear). Both has a drying time of 30 minutes. Both have same bonding quality. Which one does everyone use and trust? I've been using E-tex lite and wanting to try something else. Thanks again! --George Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JBlaze Posted September 21, 2014 Report Share Posted September 21, 2014 Good Question, I have never before seen the Home version but have used many packs of the one in the blue pkg, always with good results. will be interested in what others have to say about this "Home version". Thanks for showing. John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobP Posted September 21, 2014 Report Share Posted September 21, 2014 I bet Devcon just wants to increase the appeal by updating the packaging. I wouldn't hesitate to buy it - just about any 30 min slow cure epoxy works fine. Devcon became a standard among bait builders because Walmart used to sell it in double syringes for 2 bucks. But similar brands work just as well according to all reports. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gone2long Posted September 21, 2014 Report Share Posted September 21, 2014 (edited) Well I hope the one on the left is a good one cause I just did 4 baits with it while waiting for my Bob Smith epoxy to get here Edited September 21, 2014 by Gon2long Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark poulson Posted September 21, 2014 Report Share Posted September 21, 2014 Well I hope the one on the left is a good one cause I just did 4 baits with it while waiting for my Bob Smith epoxy to get here Those baits are a total failure, but, if you send them to me, I'll make sure they get a proper burial at sea.

HAWGFAN Posted September 22, 2014 Report Share Posted September 22, 2014 I've been using the "home" version, both in syringe and bottled packaging. I've had excellent results, and where I fish is very brutal on bait finishes. I believe that Devcon just updated the packaging. If your baits cured properly, you'll be pleased with the results.

Ken 6645 Posted September 23, 2014 Report Share Posted September 23, 2014 I picked up some Hobby Lobby 4 oz bottles, 2- part epoxy glue for 5.00 that worked just great for me...twice the clear coat for half the money..and no yellow that i can tell hope this helps Ken 6645 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skeeter Posted September 24, 2014 Report Share Posted September 24, 2014 There is no difference between them. Same stuff. The Home long cure should have Product Number 31345 on the back in the lower right hand corner. Skeeter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CustomBaits4You Posted September 26, 2014 Report Share Posted September 26, 2014 I have only used the Devcon Home. It has so far been great, it dries hard as rock in only 24 hours. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skeeter Posted September 26, 2014 Report Share Posted September 26, 2014 If mixed and applied correctly a bait can be used in 12 hrs. Skeeter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrinityLureCompany Posted September 27, 2014 Report Share Posted September 27, 2014 Hey Ken 6645, Great tip thanks for that one. Any time I can save some money I'm all over it. You know "CHEAP"! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silo1688 Posted September 30, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 30, 2014 You guys are great! Thanks so much. I bought some of the home version and it works great. It thins really easy with denatured alcohol. Brushes on very smooth and evens out very well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Ron Posted October 17, 2014 Report Share Posted October 17, 2014 I tried Devcon 2ton one time and that was over 2 years ago, couldn't wait to find something better. Along came Flex Coat rob builders 2 part epoxy Lite formula and the rest is history. As far as I'm concerned it doesn't get any better than Flex Coat. Yes it is expensive, but it goes a long ways.
