Hi Eric

There is alot of BS flying around here in Sweden regarding Epoxy.

One Swedish company that produces Epoxy is NM-Epoxy they have a rather "pure" sort of solvent free Epoxy. But it is still toxic and you can get allergy from it. The company is OK and they inform you about the risks. But some of the people that sell the stuff are rather desperat and the tell you what ever you want to hear.

We also have had some problems with cheap Epoxy from east Europe.
