azsouth Posted February 2, 2019 Report Share Posted February 2, 2019 fish eyes usually mean the surface is not clean or paint is not dry ( in my experience ) bubbles can be reduced by thinning the epoxy. IMO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BobP Posted February 2, 2019 Report Share Posted February 2, 2019 After mixing the epoxy, I mix in a FEW drops of denatured alcohol until the viscosity is where I want it for brushing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
