Re: puor on epoxy clear
Yes, Looks great when it works. I don't consider myself and expert in coating, but it seems that the stuff I used was temperamental to curing completely. Simple enough instructions, 1 part of both Part A and B, mix by hand for 2 minutes (don't use a drill) and then pour. used heat to draw any air bubbles out. about 90% of it was great, but just a small patch that didn't mix well and didn't harden ruins entire piece. I used it on a table that I routed 1/16" down into wood and then put in a tree of life, and poured on top, didn't cure. Then a bar top that I put a 1/8" lip on and the letters SALOON spaced across it and poured on that. all but a few square inches cured. Probably my fault, but that is my 2 cents.

Do you know how it looked after along period of time? I have read about some of it yellowing over time. Also do you remember what brand you used. The stuff I've seen looks great when first done but I dont know how it would look over time.
That would suck.

Re: puor on epoxy clear
This is what I tried. I don't count out user error to this day, but haven't had good luck with trying to get a 1/16" layer, possibly trying to thick in one coating?
