I've used System Three for this for a couple of years and it's very good but West System came out with this product (or I discovered that they sold it) which I like a bit better. It's a bit thinner and seems to penetrate better. I typically use West Marine products with their many fillers and filleting blends for all kinds of epoxy uses. This one is also very good. http://www.westmarine.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?catalogId =10001&storeId=11151&productId=100202&langId=-1#.UNp136yZaSo David Love www.davidlovepianos.com -----Original Message----- From: pianotech-bounces at ptg.org [mailto:pianotech-bounces at ptg.org] On Behalf Of Joseph Garrett Sent: Tuesday, December 25, 2012 6:28 PM To: pianotech Subject: Re: [pianotech] Soundboard Repair Thumpe(r) said: "And where, please, does one acquire the right "water thin epoxy", and does it need a UV protection additive?" Have a nice Christmas! Thumper, The one I've been using is "System Three" (part A & B). It takes a good 48 hours for it to achieve a full set, but it does the job of penetrating and making the board look good too.<G> Any good Marine Supply should have it. Or any High End Wood working Store, such as Woodcrafters. Happy Ho Ho to you too, my Friend, Joe Joe Garrett, R.P.T. Captain of the Tool Police Squares R I
