Epoxy

[GetOffMySwag801]

Will it hold my bumpers to my car?? I got a 1987 ford escort!

[klickkzam]

give me a video showing how to apply Epoxy on the countertop

[AsktheBuilder]

@klickkzam Sure what time today do you need it? :-/

[sirkamla]

how hard is it when it dry? what kind of epoxy u prefer when repairing a guitar? or covering the big crack part of the wood? the paste epoxy or the gorilla epoxy?

[PhilipMitchellGraham]

I use a cheep paper note pad and ice cream sticks to mix epoxy. Its very clean.

[PhilipMitchellGraham]

Guaranteed way to get the lid off an old paint tin is to use a pair of pliers to grip the outer rim and leaver it up as you would with a screwdriver. Gripping the rim dramatically increases the leverage. Of course this destroys the lid, but its safe, quick and it works.

Epoxy is a thermosetting resin that cures with heat. So why didnt he use heat to make it harden?

[AsktheBuilder]

@fbf1451 Because it's not needed. Who in the world told you that you need heat to make epoxy cure? There are many epoxies that cure and harden at room temperature. Be careful about spreading false information.

[PhilipMitchellGraham]

@fbf1451 When you mix both parts of the epoxy, the chemical reaction generates its own heat.

im a drummer, and i have a cracked crash cymbal, i read that you can put epoxy in the crack and bake it in a 200 degree oven, then let the cymbal cool for a day. do you think it would really hold up?

[Drumfreax101]

@louiebarletta42

It wouldn't work. I'm not the guy in the video, but trust me.

[AsktheBuilder]

@louiebarletta42 It will not work indeed. You want to fix that cymbal? It needs to be welded, ground and then retuned.

[andersersand]

@AsktheBuilder it will never sound the same however

[PhilipMitchellGraham]

@louiebarletta42 Don't try and fix a symbol. Even a successful weld will change its sound.

[carsonky]

I was like.. why do the lids matter? Oooohh... :) I'm such a noob.

Hi,what epoxy would be best to use to fill a leak hole on a small aluminum radiator..The leak holes are very small to be blocked..

The epoxy would need to take some heat from the radiator getting hot and hold back water from the small leak holes.

[grillpan123]

@Videogamerdaryll solder it

[matrixfoxtard]

lol i like the last tip xD

[KevinWCuts]

is this stronger than gorrilla glue

[miesrah12]

what about industrial epoxy or mighty putty

[AsktheBuilder]

@miesrah12 Well, perhaps you should buy some, test it, shoot videos of you doing all this and report back with your findings. That's what YouTube is all about. You taking the initiative to help everyone else.

[miesrah12]

@AsktheBuilder well i have seen a "How its made" episode where they made skis and the epoxy they say rises dramatically and curs itself by heating itself

and mighty putty is a piece of white crap

[gggggg555555]

thank you much that was helpful

[ailll1]

does it resist to high temperature?

[PonsXAsinorum]

@ailll1

Less than 420 F?

[shockflyyer3d]

you have to get a thermal epoxy some do just read the labael

[krazzyKooldownKrew84]

Thank you =)----------> around how long does it take to dry?

[AsktheBuilder]

They all have different cure times. There is no standard.

[warrockslashman1]

this stuff works great! i used epoxy to hold the front sight on one of my rifles and its still holding up fine

[mcplump]

thnk u
