E-tex demo @ plugfest..
I was toying with bringing my spinner.. but due to the size of the beast.. it's not practical... BUT... I have a rod dryer/ spinner i can spin a plug with..... if there is interest.. I'll bring enough stuff to do a live demo on covering a plug with 2 part snot...incuding my prep metheds and mixology..

OK .. I'll make it happen.. I worked out the make shift spinner last night.. worked like a charm...
I'll do the demo @ 10:30 unless it interferes with something else or someone has a better idea..

Joe I have an inline spinner I can bring if you don't want to or can not fit it, you seem to be bringing a lot of stuff already, you need to leave room in the truck for Nancy 
let me know |

Joe I went over to your tables at 10:30 and you were busy talking to a few people. If I ended up missing your e-tex demo I'm sorry.

Epoxy will yellow more with age. I don't use any of them more than 3 yrs old for good finish. before I'd chance it on a plug or anything else mix some an try it on a scrap painted board to see what happens.

one thing that does happen to it is crystyles form in the mixture with time.. you wont know if they are there until you pour the mixture... they will be in the resin part.

Thanks. I'll test out the mixture tonight to see how it has held up.
What about sanding before applying? Sorry if this is E-Tex 101.  |

You can get rid of the crystals easily by placing the bottle in a dish of hot water. The warming up of the etex or any epoxy gets rid of those crystals. I have done it many times.
I've used epoxy 5-8 years old.
