Massey finish - two part epoxy and acetone

<< < (2/6) > >>

medicinewheel:
I will try this with liquid epoxy on a GF bow I am working on for a repair some time soon. Will keep you posted.

superdav95:
This is something I’m gonna try as well.  I’ve got a moose hunt comming up and worried about wet weather too and wood bow.  Great info!   Will any 2 ton epoxy work?   I have some 5 min dry time stuff. Will this still work?

Eric Krewson:
I have a friend who uses the 5-minute stuff, naturally it sets up much quicker. I have used it as well and it worked just fine.

A well done tung oil finish is as resistant as anything :)

simk:
how about being a little more primitive?  ;) I once did an epoxy finish on one of my bows - it felt and looked like a plastic bow, not very primitive anymore. I removed this finish again and wont do it anymore.
how about uv-resistance? what I've heard epoxy does not like sun very much, shiny finish will maybe turn dull very soon?
I like epoxy in my gluelines tough...
