Thanks guys for the fast response. Screw it they are good enough, I can't believe I said that. They came out great except for a few spots and instead of ruining it I will let it be. P.

I also have another question. I seem to be getting too many bubbles in my mixing process, I know Chris humor me. Would pouring the epoxy out onto a larger surface other than the cup I mix it in make the bubbles pop easier being that the mix is not thick and they can rise if the mix is only say .0625 thick.  In the cup they don't seem to rise up to pop.  Paul

Paul,, don't worry about bubbles.. I think of Larry Welk when mixing mine.. where do they go, flying out of the cup?.. Don't worry about that either...
Bubbles come.. bubbles go, warm mix, clean, clipped brush, all is good. Like the sensei said.. wax on, wax off.

You can blow in the cup ... wait .. blow some more if you feel like it wait ,, most should go away ... carbon dioxide kills bubbles... makes you dizzy though and you may pass out .. see u at plugfest .. Me and the pigmy poney over by the dental floss bush ..

The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.
1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!
It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.

still picky enough to write .0625 rather than 1/16.......and you just had to add the .0005
I blow into the cup just before i start applying (e-tex) to pop the big ones, then get the rest once they are on the plug. i coat one, then pop the bubbles. the longer you wait the harder it is to pop 'em. keep blowing untill you get headspin.
slip (i think) posted in another thread awhile back that if you mix the two parts slowly, you get less bubbles.

and use something round like a dowel to mix it, not a flat popsicle stick
you get less bubbles with a round stirrer.

Instead of using your breath use a propane torch set to low and at a bit of a distance away and use sweeping motion.Works great and no dizziness.

My method exactly and you don't wind up epoxy on your lips.

whew!!! I thought I was the only one walking up ad down the nailpolish aisle at WalMart!! Great stuff in a pinch. Every once in a while I get a little spot that's a bit tacky, the clear nailpolish does the trick.
