I do appreciate you taking the time to conduct that comparison. Would recommend that you explain what your doing when mixing correctly and the same for the other board. I am one of those DIYers that look for these kinds of videos to learn from. By the way, based on most of the epoxy videos I have seen on YT, mixing by hand is the recommended actions and NOT mixing with A DRILL.

Great Video! Before peeps start hating on the vid, read the video description. Plus, the correct ratio is the 1:1 or 1:2 listed on the jug of epoxy or in the epoxy instructions. The wrong ratio would be anything that isnt 1:1 or 1:2. Also in the correct mixing the instructions will list to stir for 3-5 minutes until mixed well and scrape the sides and bottom. So the wrong mixing will be stirring for less then directed and without scraping sides and bottom. Simply put: for Correct Method follow instructions of epoxy. For Incorrect Method ignore instructions and wing it. That simple.

Had some counter tops done. Bar was perfect. Counter tops along the walls actually soften with heat. I think the second layer was mixed wrong, and the top clear coat was done right. You can literally move it with your fingers like a hard bubble of water. I was told that it was probably the temperature of the room? When we did the Bar it was about 70, when we did the counter top, it was 90 in a new construction. Any info on this would be great.

Ok, my mistake was not mixing the ratio for the complete 3 minutes, hence causing it to be tacky. The denatured alcohol only dulled the surface and same with a 320 and 220 grit. I used WD-40 and it got rid of the tackiness. Typically I use that when cleaning up caulking on jobsites, and it always worked, so decided to give it a whirl. Honestly, had nothing to lose at this point. Then I used Helmsman poly (uv resistant) in a semi gloss. Problem solved! Lesson I learned - don't fuuuuk with epoxy directions!) Why I didn't mix for the total 3 mins? Well I use Gorilla glue epoxy frequently and you can mix for 30 secs and it works just fine. I had presumed in my infinite amateur wisdom, that all epoxies cured the same, and that Parks Super Glaze was being ridiculous. Bottom line for newcomers to the world of epoxies...read and follow directions thoroughly!! I almost ruined a very important project I was making as a gift.

I don't remember for sure if this is the brand that says that it is at its toughest after a 30 day cure. That being said, his point in this video is VERY WELL made. If you don't mix it right, it's soft, pliable, and prone to a large extent of damage with little effort. Nothing an extra 27 days of curing will fix.

I’m working on a project which is a large map of an island (24”x30”) made out of sand and glue. The ocean and lakes have been made with colored resin. Different blues in the ocean. I now need to sand it to tidy up some ugly ripples before applying the final layer of clear resin. I need the resin to be thin in order to work around the fiddley edges of the island. I also need more working time. What is the best way to thin the resin? I will be mixing approximately 20oz of mixed resin total (10oz of each resin and hardener).

Our epoxy resin has more working time than any product on the market. You will not need to thin our product out. Thanks

I haven't used their products yet but am fairly experienced in working with epoxy resins. Epoxy is more likely to get scratched than for example polyurethane because it is more brittle. But the curing process usually takes longer than the three days shown here, so it will be even more resistant after a week. Also note that the screwdriver he used probably has a hardened steel tip, which easily scratches most materials (it's relative scratch hardness can be as high as that of quartz!)The bad one will probably never fully cure. Correct resin/hardener ratio is crucial whren working with epoxy!

Cam23 You're right. It's not complicated at all but in Leggarris defense not all epoxy/resin is the same. There are also many different uses for it. Just a few ex. are restoring/creating furniture, floors, showers/tubs, boats, walls, sculptures, artwork. There are variance from 1 job to the next as well as 1 manufacturer to the next. There is different ratios, mixing times & directions. There's also weather/temperature adjustments. None of it's 🚀 science and everyone can use e/r but you also have to realize that not everyone has the experience you have nor will everyone be doing the same type of work in the same conditions as you. This stuff isn't cheap so when a customer of theirs is investing hundreds if not thousands of dollars on a product they've never used before I think the co. SHOULD give them instructions. It's good business practice & kudos to them for going the extra mile. Not to mention, I just got sent 2 gallons of bunk. (Out Of Date-Not from this co.) If I didn't know better I would have assumed it was something I was doing wrong & I could have ruined my current project costing me thousands of dollars out of my 👛. Ladies need their $.
