Peterpools Posted September 4, 2018 Posted September 4, 2018 Does anyone have experience using the epoxy HPH sells and recommends for resin kits? I mainly use CCA and every once in a while two part epoxy I buy at the local hardware store which is on the thick side and messy to use. I’ve watched the videos on the HPH web site and their epoxy seems easier to use. Thank You Peter 1
Administrators Clunkmeister Posted September 7, 2018 Administrators Posted September 7, 2018 Peter, HPH has their own brand of epoxy, and it’s great stuff. But it’s almost impossible to get into the Country. HPH doesn’t seem to anxious to send it.... Thankfully I have a few friends in the Czech and Slovak Republics who sent me some. Any 30 minute or 24 hour epoxy will work, but the HPH brand stuff is a bit thinner without being runny. It levels itself beautifully... Even five minute epoxy will work, but it doesn’t give you much time... 2
Peterpools Posted September 7, 2018 Author Posted September 7, 2018 Ernie Thanks for the info and after watching their video, I was very impressed with the epoxy. Always great to have friends. Peter 1
Administrators Clunkmeister Posted September 8, 2018 Administrators Posted September 8, 2018 I’m working the back channels, Peter, so I’ll see what I can manage. 1
Administrators James H Posted September 8, 2018 Administrators Posted September 8, 2018 I have HpH's epoxy and it really is fantastic! Goes a very long way. 2
Guest DannyVM Posted September 8, 2018 Posted September 8, 2018 For decades i'm using this stuff..... Great to work with, gives a very strong bound and you can get it in different sort's of drying time.
Bomber_County Posted September 8, 2018 Posted September 8, 2018 ZAP or Devcon have always been good for me, you can also warm the mix to make it flow a little better....... 1

Administrators Clunkmeister Posted September 10, 2018 Administrators Posted September 10, 2018 Yep, any SLOW CURE epoxy will work great. I highly recommend against 5 minute epoxy. It doesn't seem to hold or penetrate like the slow cure stuff. 1
Administrators James H Posted September 11, 2018 Administrators Posted September 11, 2018 The HpH stuff is supposedly what they use on the full size gliders they build. It's pretty much a 24hr to full cure style glue.
Iceman Posted September 11, 2018 Posted September 11, 2018 Just a heads up, Walmart has the HPH epoxy listed on the website. Indicates currently out of stock, but obviously they do stock it. https://www.walmart.com/ip/HPH-Model-Special-2-Part-Epoxy-Glue-APXY007G/137418952 1
Administrators James H Posted September 11, 2018 Administrators Posted September 11, 2018 That's a good price too. It lasts a LONG time. 1
Peterpools Posted September 11, 2018 Author Posted September 11, 2018 Thanks guys gor the info - as usual, I never knew Peter
