I have been using Zpoxy for pore filling. I want something that is clear and doesn't have amine blush potential.
In looking at the 3 System Three choices I was interested in your experience, the pros and cons of each.
It seems that many here on the forum used Silvertip, yet LMI sells Clear Coat and 112B.
Apparently Clear Coat is much less viscous (thinner) than 112B. To me, that would seem like a big plus since it would run into the pores more easily than a more viscous epoxy. I try to press epoxy into the pores, but if it ran in on its own and didn't shrink back, I would be overjoyed (less coats, maybe just one coat?)
Speaking of viscosity, what is the advantage of making epoxy even thicker by adding the micro beads?
SB-112 is the only product that I saw on the System Three website that specifically mentions its use for musical instruments.
Do you use the Fast Hardener or Slow Hardener with Silvertip? (I would expect the slow to flow out better.)
I assume that all three of these can be used as an adhesive too (unlike Zpoxy finishing resin product)
I understand that Silvertip sands easily like Zpoxy. I wonder about Clear Coat and 112B?
Where are you buying System Three products? Here is the best price I've found at Fiberglass Supply: https://fiberglasssupply.com/s-1-5-quar ... ing-resin/
Thanks for your input in advance.
