Another question I had about epoxying and glassing...
What are the best rollers to use for applying epoxy? I have heard Lowe's sells some foam ones that don't soak up the epoxy, but I also found epoxy specific rollers at Home Depot..never worked with the stuff before, and I haven't found anything search wise on here about what rollers to use..
Also, when doing the impregnating layer of epoxy, what consistency should I be seeing? Watery? Gluey? Honey? I know the acetone thins it out so how thick am I applying? Just a thin layer to let the wood soak up?
Now I was thinking that probably the best thing to do when applying the epoxy is to let the first layer start to set, sand any wood fibers that lift before the epoxy has a full cure, and then lay down the next layer or epoxy so that the second layer can bond to the first and create an even stronger barrier. Also, I was thinking of doing this for all layers of epoxy..let the new layer harden with the previous layer versus hardening on top of the old layer..
If that is the case, then how long should I be waiting in between coats of epoxy? One day? Two days?
