In Response To: Epoxy: Anyone use Raka epoxy? *LINK* (Ken M.)

KEN: JUST FINISHED EPOXYING MY GUILLEMOT DOUBLE AND THE RAKA EPOXY WORKED GREAT. I USED THEIR 6 OZ. CLOTH WITH THEIR NON-BLUSHING EPOXY. I DID A LOT OF VENEER WORK AND WITH 3 COATS OF FILL PRIOR TO THE GLASS AND IT WAS CLEAR AS CAN BE.
THE NON BLUSHING EPOXY WILL HELP IN CASE YOU HAVE DELAYS BETWEEN COATS. AND AS THE PRIOR POST HAVE STATED, VERY COST EFFECTIVE. ONLY PROBLEM I HAD WAS THE PUMP CONTINUED TO BURP SO I USED GRADUATED PLASTIC CUP TO MEASURE AS OPPOSED TO RELYING ON THE ACCURACY OF THE PUMP. THEIR SERVICE WAS VERY GOOD AS WELL.
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR PROJECT.
