Good product. It is slightly different from other similar epoxies which makes it better in some applications.
Good product. It is slightly different from other similar epoxies which makes it better in some applications.First it is thick and does not run. It won't even run together in the bottom of the mixing cup. It is perfect for applications where you do not want it to run or drip. I used it to fill screw holes in an EV body where the substrate behind the outer shell had rotted away. I needed to fill a volume of about a cubic inch to make a solid base to screw in anchors. I used a large syringe without a needle and packed the mixed epoxy into the syringe with a Popsicle stick before injecting it in.Any other epoxy would have run back out or run down between the inside wall sections but this filled the void nicely and did not run back out. After an hour I was able to drill it out and after two I installed the bolts. I will wait overnight before tightening.Second is that it seems to have some solvents to make it adhere to plastic. It definitely is more plastic itself which allowed me to drill it and install the bolts without worrying about it being too hard and cracking.Third is the 20 minute setting time. This allows enough time to do the mixing and application even if there are several places that it is being applied to without it setting up while I am working with it. The 20 minute setup time is the time between mixing and the time it cannot be worked any more. I would say that it can be trimmed or drilled in about an hour and would perhaps accept a light load in two but will not fully cure for several hours. I prefer tins to having to rush like mad to get it mixed and use it before it becomes unworkable.The negatives are few and obvious.It cannot be dribbled down between parts to help hold in a concealed area.It costs many times more per ounce than getting it in a larger container and mixing in the thickener as needed.It does not seem to set up as hard as regular Epoxy or Epoxy with thickeners and/or bonding agents like the West System ones. It is definitely "Plastic" rather than "Rock Hard" so make sure that is what you want.Robs recommendation-The combination of convenience and plasticity along with the leisurely set time was perfect for me. There are many variations on the epoxy theme. Pick the right one before using them.

Worked great on a polycarbonate "Lifetime"-brand basketball backboard
I have a Lifetime brand outdoor basketball set in my driveway. The picture I've attached is the "before" picture. Naturally, the backboard starting coming off 5 years and 2 months after purchase, and the unit had a 5 year warranty.Rather than scrap it, I decided to try this glue. No other adhesives/epoxies I tried would stick to the polycarbonate. The original manufacturer used some sort of hot glue (according to their representative) to bond the clear polycarbonate to the plastic backboard frame, and they told me there was no commercially-available glue I could fix this with. After failing with all other glues/epoxies, I was starting to believe them, but decided to try one last time with this, and it eventually worked.Most other glues I tried wouldn't stick at all to the clear polycarbonate. This epoxy did. I tried one test spot first, and it stuck to the polycarbonate fine, it just wouldn't adhere to the plastic backboard, until I prepped it better. I had to take up all original glue and then rough up the black plastic frame first (I used a 60 grit flap disc on an angle grinder), to give the epoxy a better surface to bond with.With the back of the polycarbonate clean, and the plastic frame roughed-up, I mixed the entire contents of the tubes all at once. For my purpose, I'm glad I got the 20 minute version, as I don't know if I could get this done with 5 minute epoxy. Could have probably used half another tube, but I was able to get all the spots covered. I weighted it for about 2 hours afterward, to ensure good contact everywhere while it cured.Worked great. I know it sounds like a lot of work to fix this, when most would just throw it away and buy another, but I kept something out of the landfill for a few more years, so I'm happy.Oh, and kudos to the seller. The USPS lost my package - just disappeared after one of the USPS distribution points in the tracking. The seller took care of this super promptly.
