The epoxy resin applicator is ideal for hobbyists, craftsmen, carpenters and hobby craftsmen!

Finally a reliable, well-made epoxy gun that works! After installing three beautiful custom railings in my home, I had to fill each wrought iron bar with epoxy. The epoxy gun was plastic and broke after three or four uses. Big stores didn't have a comparable applicator and their epoxy systems were very expensive and didn't work well. So I ordered other epoxy guns - all expensive, all plastic and all break easily. After tormenting myself for about a year I finally came back to find a workable epoxy application system and I found it! It works fantastic! After attaching the spindles, I made two of the three railings in under an hour. The instructions are clear - don't apply too much pressure or risk popping the epoxy tube(s). The epoxy itself is opaque, thick enough to be applied to the tops of the spindles without running, and of high quality. I had enough time to carefully dump four tubes of epoxy so it didn't get too thick and after 24 hours the railing was rock solid. This system may seem expensive, but other epoxy systems would cost me ten times more and take more days to make. When applying epoxy, it's time to realize that the applicator is too weak for the job. Other metal epoxy applicators may also work (haven't tried them) and may be cheaper but may not be better. Also, plastic epoxy applicators are a waste of time and money. I prefer to work on my projects than on my tools. I will continue to use the PC Products Epoxy Applicator in my home projects and will recommend it to hobbyists, tradespeople, and crafters who need reliable, fast, and accurate epoxy application.
