A couple of questions about epoxy:

1) How much do I need? I'm planning on making a background out of polystyrene that will be 150cm x 65cm x 3cm - should I coat both sides if sealing to the glass? I'm also planning on making two rock sculpture about 60cm x 50cm x 50cm with expanding foam, and sticking on sand.

2) What's the difference between a 1:1 and a 5:1 ratio? I'm guessing one is gooier than the other.

3) If used on an item with toxic paint, will the epoxy prevent the paint from leeching into the water? Is epoxy safe for use in a fish tank?

Cheers guys and girls :D
