Question Where is Devcon?

Maybe it's just me, but I can't find this stuff anywhere. Devcon 30 minute, 2 ton epoxy, can somebody point me in the right direction. I checked Michael's, Homies, Lowes . . . nothing. I wanted to use it for a top coat.

Thanks again

Any idea how much epoxy I'll need (approximately) for 12 plugs?


Thanks again.

I go through the devcon like water. I'm constantly fixing all my kids toys. What does not get used on toys gets used on flies.
I would say 2-3 tubes should be enough for 12 plugs.

Is devcon available in larger tubes or maybe even . . . vats, like envirotex?

I'm thinking ahead for once. As soon as this batch of plugs is done, I'm sure there will be another one, and another, and another . . .

Thanks

Ahh, so that's why the Wal-mart in Howell is out of Devcon-30. Come to think of it, so is Countyline Hardware
