Thinning Devcon Epoxy?

Recommended Posts

I have tried before and after mixing . Worked for me both ways. I have to say though, why take a chance in messing up the chemistry if you do not have to? The only reason I sometimes have thinned before mixing the epoxy was to aid in mixing because the epoxy was cold. Once thinned a little it mixed easily even cold.

I also use denatured alcohol, and have been for years. 1 small to medium size bait = dime to nickel size epoxy parts and 4 - 6 drops of d.a. One thing I like about d.a. besides extending working time is that I can thin a mixed batch to achieve a thinner finish coat, which I prefer on many of the newer jerk baits that have molded scales, fins, etc. Not quite as durable but lighter in weight for such finely tuned (neutral buoyancy) out of the package baits.
