Just wondering if anyone's tried using an epoxy finish (as opposed to say CA). There are epoxies out there that cure to very nearly transparent, and polymerize to a hardness comparable to CA.
I did a little experiment using a little $2 tube of lepage epoxy. Mixed it and spread it out over my test surface. It cured to a nice hard clear polymer, the only difficulty I had was eliminating airbubbles.
Air bubbles are the problem with epoxy and can be minimised by keeping the temp up before mixing. Getting an epoxy that dries hard can be a trick but they still all feel like plastic when done.
Just my two cents,
System 3 Laminating Resin 2 part epoxy
System 3 Clear Coat 2 part epoxy
If you send me an e mail in about a month when I get home Ill send you a sample of each Best Regards Gary Mel0220@att.net
