Don'ts with Epoxies

• Do not mix an entire unit at once unless your experience has proven that you can mix a batch this size under the conditions that you are working. Always start by mixing small batches and slowly increase your batch sizes as needed.
• Do not contaminate the two Resins, always keep them separated from each other
• Do not use epoxies without proper personal protection equipment
• Do not use epoxy on unclean or unsound surfaces
• Do not use epoxy on applications in direct sunlight, they will yellow, instead use Urethanes
• Do not improperly dispose of an epoxy until it hardens
• Do not mix batches of epoxy that you cannot use within the specified pot life. Remember that epoxies set much faster at warmer temperatures.
• Do not store your epoxies in hot areas. Storage at hot temperatures will shorten the shelf life.
• Do not mix epoxy that are very warm.  They will have a very shot pot-life.
• Do not use epoxy after they start getting hot
• Do not use an epoxy after they start to thicken
• Do not mix "A" resin into "B" hardener, instead mix B into A
• Do not stir epoxy only by hand, instead use a drill mixer of proper size
• Do not use an epoxy that you are not sure rather it got mixed right or not
• Do not mix your epoxies in unclean pails, always use clean pails
• Do not forget to get all your questions answered before starting your job.  Don't make any assumptions.  When in doubt call tech support.
• Do not use Epoxies when temperatures of the air or the substrate will drop below 50 degrees F. Without first consulting with Epoxy.com Tech service for cold installation.
