Default Epoxy experts.....runny mess.

What's that Lassie? You say that Royston Vasey fell down the old
rec.crafts.metalworking mine and will die if we don't mount a rescue

I'm trying to seal a printed circuit board into a PVC part I've turned out
on my lathe. The problem I'm having is the that the epoxy goes quite runny
as it goes through its curing process and some of it runs through small gaps
( 0.5mm) where I'd prefer it didn't.

Has anyone played around with this type of problem?

thanks.


If you have any marine stores in your area, look at what they have.
West system epoxy has several thickeners that you add in powder form.
Can be made as thick as peanut butter if you like.
