Yep more like this please. Clear and to the point. I have heard once before about the mix and sit , but told not to bother. Thanks for clearing that up. It makes perfect sense to do so.
looks nice i do use isopropyl alcohol for a final wipe down using white or light colored rags until the rags stay clean no more grime coming off as advised from watching other posts
That will work too, but I do not find it necessary at this stage. To each their own, this is at the end of the day just want I do and find works for me. I find introducing any wash/solvents will increases the chances of little fluff balls being caught up in the keyed up surface when being applied/removed with rags/cloths.
I'm happy you mentioned mixing the epotec 15 mins or so in advance to begin the chemical reaction. Glad im not the only one, but I wonder why the TDS doesn't call for it? Great vid, keep them coming.
Thanks for the effort you put in for these videos! Interesting that you rub the phosphoric coating off before epoxy, Howard from Astill Design has a video with PPG & they say to leave it on under the epoxy. Obviously your method will be fine because you’re spraying it straight away but interesting all the same. 👍
Thanks for watching. I use a different epoxy to Howard although both are (now) PPG branded. Personally I’ve had catastrophic delamination issues in the past following the same process show albeit less the sanding of the phosphate coating before epoxying (as had many other when I questioned what I’d done wrong!) So now I just do a panel at a time and get it in epoxy ASAP after abrading the surface.
Hiya Shane not sure where you are but in the UK Halfords do a weld through primer that I've seen on a channel called Dave's Garage he's restoring a MK1 escort and he tested various weld through primers this cane out on top as the best he had a piece of scrap metal that's been sitting outside for over a year and has no rust under the coating at all unlike other products he tested hope it helps?
Sweet,back on the You Tube horse mate. With some handy tips for hackers,such as myself. How long could you leave 2k in the gun for with catastrophic situations. Cheers
