SLOW-CURE(TM) 30 min. epoxy works best for forming reinforcing fillets on joints. It has the highest strength of our epoxies. It is waterproof and more heat resistant. SLOW-CURE(TM) can be used for bonding if you're willing to wait overnight. Fillers such as microballoons can be mixed with SLOW-CURE(TM) and FINISH-CURE(TM) to form a putty-like consistency. Such fillers will usually decrease the working time by about 25%. Bonded objects can be handled after 8 hours and the cured epoxy reaches full strength within 24 hours.

White Foam
Water-Resistant
Reinforcing
Works Good On:
Balsa Wood

Laminating
DIRECTIONS:
SLOW-CURE(TM) 30 min. Epoxy is an equal two-part hobby adhesive that forms high strength bonds through a chemical reaction between the resin and hardener. The cured epoxy is resistant to most chemicals.
SLOW-CURE(TM) has the highest strength of our epoxies and should be applied in temperatures above 70°F. SLOW-CURE(TM) maintains its strength in both the lowest and highest temperature ranges of our line of epoxies.
SLOW-CURE(TM) bonds best to clean, textured surfaces. Smooth, non-porous surfaces should be roughened with coarse sandpaper to improve adhesion. Acetone and Isopropyl rubbing alcohol work as the best solvents for cleaning uncured epoxy from surfaces. SLOW-CURE(TM) works best for forming reinforcing fillets on joints and can be mixed with micro balloons or other fillers to form putty-like consistency. SLOW-CURE(TM) is waterproof and forms superior bonds if you're willing to wait overnight. It has better penetration of porous surfaces for better bonding. Full cure in 6-8 hours.
QUIK-CURE(TM) 5 min. epoxy cures to a slightly flexible consistency. This lack of brittleness allows it to form a lasting bond in areas subjected to high vibration or stress.
QUIK-CURE(TM) shouldn't be used in areas that are subject to long-term immersion in water; however, it works fine for the internal structure of wood framed boats.
QUIK-CURE(TM) is our only epoxy on which you can apply polyester resins. It can be mixed with microballoons to form a quick setting putty. Items bonded with QUIK-CURE(TM) can be handled after 15 minutes. Full strength is reached in 1 hour. Works Best On:
Hard Wood
Glass & Metal
Works Good On:
Balsa Wood
Soft Wood
Fiberglass
Ceramics

QUIK-CURE(TM) 5 min. Epoxy is an equal two-part hobby adhesive that forms high strength bonds through a chemical reaction between the resin and hardener. The cured epoxy is resistant to most chemicals.
QUIK-CURE(TM) is the least temperature sensitive of our epoxies. It will cure in temperatures down to 40°F. Temperatures above 90°F shorten the working time before the epoxy begins to set up from 5 to less than 4 minutes.
QUIK-CURE(TM) bonds best to clean, textured surfaces. Smooth, non-porous surfaces should be roughened with coarse sandpaper to improve adhesion. Acetone and Isopropyl rubbing alcohol work as the best solvents for cleaning uncured epoxy from surfaces. QUIK-CURE'S(TM) lack of brittleness allows it to form lasting bonds on materials as different as balsa wood and glass; however, it is not recommended for areas subject to long-term immersion in water. Cured QUIK-CURE(TM) can be coated with polyester resin without affecting the curing of the resin. Full cure in less than 15 minutes.

MID-CURE(TM) 15 min. epoxy is used in larger areas where more working time is needed. It is more water resistant and can be used as a substitute for QUIK-CURE(TM) in most applications.
MID-CURE(TM) is our most flexible epoxy and is ideal for gluing to fiberglass surfaces. Allow 45 minutes before handling parts and 2 hours for full strength. Works Best On:
Hard Wood
Fiberglass
Works Good On:
Balsa Wood

DIRECTIONS:
MID-CURE(TM) 15 min. Epoxy is an equal two-part hobby adhesive that forms high strength bonds through a chemical reaction between the resin and hardener. The cured epoxy is resistant to most chemicals.
MID-CURE(TM) should be applied in temperatures above 65?F. It can be used in most applications when you need more working time than QUIK-CURE(TM) provides. MID-CURE(TM) can be worked for about 10 minutes, with adhesion beginning after about 15 minutes.
MID-CURE(TM) bonds best to clean, textured surfaces. Smooth, non-porous surfaces should be roughened with coarse sandpaper to improve adhesion. Acetone and Isopropyl rubbing alcohol work as the best solvents for cleaning uncured epoxy from surfaces. MID-CURE(TM) is our most flexible epoxy. This gives it superior bonding qualities in applications such as hardwood to fiberglass. MID-CURE'S(TM) lack of brittleness allows it to form lasting bonds in areas subject to high vibration or stress. MID-CURE(TM) is a water-resistant substitute for QUIK-CURE(TM). Full cure in 2-3 hours.
