Epoxy Adhesive (Epoxy Putty Paste)
Epoxy Putty Paste Two-Part System was developed to fill voids, bond, seal, and repair most materials and is able to adhere to various substrates, i.e., Styrofoam, urethane foam wood, metal, stone, and resin materials--An excellent sculpting medium for artists, sculptors, and modelers. Once cured, it can be carved, sanded, and drilled. This material has a 45 minute pot life in 1/8” thickness. Epoxy adhesives have great adhesion to most surfaces and work well in various environments where temperature or chemical resistance is a concern.

Mix Instructions:
Mix material together by weight or volume as accurately as possible avoiding color streaks--material should be uniform in color when thoroughly mixed. Epoxy Putty Paste can be feathered (smoothed out) with a tool or rubbing alcohol prior to cure. Additional layers can be added within 30-40 minutes. Epoxy Putty Paste will cure in 2 to 3 hours and is ready for sanding and painting. A hair dryer Hot Setting can be used to quicken the cure. Surfaces of non-porous materials may require sanding or a solvent wipe for best adhesion. When applying in cold weather, epoxy can be warmed in a hot water bath (place unmixed containers in a plastic bag first and allow 15 minutes for hot water to heat up materials) prior to mixing. Preheating the surface of materials may also help for proper cure when working in cold weather conditions. Call for more technical advice if necessary (See MSDS for material information).
Handling and Storage:
Use rubber or plastic gloves when mixing. Keep material sealed when not in use. Epoxy has a long storage shelf-life and is not a regulated hazardous material.
