JIM I have switched to JB weld (reg cure not quick cure)

for gluing inserts etc. Works great. I have had same problems with reg epoxy that you experience.

TROY’S suggestion of smooth on is excellent it is a great epoxy but like he mentions it is not offered in small containers or tubes.

DR ED Ed you are always right and you explain and demonstrate your views so well…. Just a suggestion it might not hurt you to get out of the cabin more often.:D:D

MERRY CHRISTMAS
