    Default Epoxy for inlay transfers

    So I'm going to be transferring an inlay to a set of acrylic scales and have read on here most of you guys use epoxy, so was wondering for any specific brands that you guys use?

    CLEAR !!!!!

    Most store bought epoxy dries with a slight amber tint, look for true clear drying if you plan on transferring to White or light colored scales..
    Don't forget to rough up the area right below the inlay so the epoxy can grab..

    Use the old adage of "Measure twice cut once" when setting up the transfer you only get one shot at getting it right...
