Review on 🚀 J-B Weld MarineWeld Epoxy - 2 oz. - Ideal for Marine Applications by Jason Sullivan

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Strong adhesive, low odor but difficult to measure

I used this product to fix a 3 inch hairline crack in my bathtub. I created a 1 inch radius around the crack. You can see my circuit in the picture. I sanded the area and applied 3-4 coats of epoxy 24 hours apart. In areas directly above the crack, its thickness is almost 3/16 inch. It's probably an exaggeration, but that crack is right where you're standing, so it's under a lot of stress. I emailed JB Weld with questions and they were very helpful. If you have any questions I would email or call them. I used JB Weld to make sure the epoxy bonds to the previous coats but it needs to fully cure first which takes 15-24 hours. I have those 2nd shower so I can wait. So, while the repair lasted 2 months with daily use. The odor from the epoxy was faint. I opened the window in the bathroom and closed the door, there was no smell anywhere else. Even after the epoxy has cured (15-20 minutes) the smell goes away White didn't suit my bathroom but I didn't expect it and I don't care. Connection between two pistons and controlled each of them separately and it worked perfectly. I also used this on the pivot screw on the security plate. ld of my Harbor Freight 12" miter saw cracked the plastic where the screw attaches to the guard. It's been a few months now and this repair is holding up. Overall I am impressed with this epoxy.
