It's a no brainer to try coating the tank with a 2-part water-borne epoxy. It's fairly expensive to do, but it's without question the best investment you can make. E-mail me, and I can refer you to a company I got mine from, along with a 15-year product guarantee.Painted cement tank needs to be sealed with clear water proof epoxy .?
Hey! Mike Rowe! This is YOUR job! :)

Can I apply clear coat on top of epoxy paint on garage floor?

We purchase the epoxy kit but we did not mix A with B. My error. Now I want to protect my floor with some kind of a sealer or concrete protector so the paint wont peal off. My fear is would the sealer or clear coat can I apply on top of the paint. Recommendations please. I dont want to take the whole thing off and start all over again. ThanksCan I apply clear coat on top of epoxy paint on garage floor?
If you used just part A or B it will take forever, if ever dry. You sure can't put a sealer on it if the first coat isn't dry. Sorry, it's got to come off first. I suggest acetone. Have plenty of ventilation and a real big bunch of rags.

I used Rust-oleum Epoxy Shield Garage Floor & Clear Coating. Can I apply a second coat of the clear coating?

The orginial application of the clear coating did not coat evenly. There are dull areas of the garage floor that are not covered well.

Large knots in oak flooring, want to fill it with clear epoxy?

We bought new 5'; wide utility oak flooring, they have many imperfections from large 2'; knots with the depth of 3/4'; to the little knots. I know I can fill it with wood putty... question, can I use anything, like a clear liquid to keep the 3 dimension knots visible but would also take to polyurethane over it?





The small knots and imperfections will of course be filled to wood putty. The stain on the flooring with be a dark color.Large knots in oak flooring, want to fill it with clear epoxy?
2 part polyester resin will work- most hardware stores can get it for you. it's a resin %26amp; hardener mixture which will cure regardless of depth- i have used it for bars, countertops, cypress clocks, etc. it remains clear, and you can go over it with poly.Large knots in oak flooring, want to fill it with clear epoxy?
Hi,


Oak flooring inherently does not have knots, if you fill the areas with a clear resin make sure you lightly sand the finish to allow the poly to adhere properly.
Don't: Fill the knots with ';Durhams'; rock hard wood putty. A powder but, fill the holes half way until you have about 1/4 inch left than fill to the top and sand. Allow at least overnight to solidify.
Epoxy will seal the wood. The stain won't penetrate.





There is a product called ';wood conditioner'; that is made for this.
Use the resin it's fast and cheap,but you have to work fast before it hardens.I suggest mixing a little at a time.
you can use resin it's available at most craft stores

Is there any way to buff out the grease film on a clear coat epoxy covered table top?

We believe that the manufacturer (or whomever apllied the clear coat epoxy resin) failed to put enough hardener in the mixture and instead of a clear 'glass-like' finish encasing the table tops


what we ended up with were table tops encased in a clear 'soft-n-tacky-like' finish which appears to have bonded with this greasy film and looks taerrible.Is there any way to buff out the grease film on a clear coat epoxy covered table top?
You can try wet sanding it or just strip and redo it.

How to encapsulate Bugs or other Stuff in clear Resin, epoxy or similar?

I need to know what material they use to encapsulate Bugs. Clear stuff. I want to encapsulate something that I have for someone as a gift but don't know what exactly it is that they use. It sort of preserves it for ever. So if you know what it is or where I can get it,, please let me know. ThanksHow to encapsulate Bugs or other Stuff in clear Resin, epoxy or similar?
Go to the art department of any major craft store like michael's, JoAnn's, or Hobby Lobby. You will find casting resin that even has pictures of what you are describing on the label. There are very detailed instructions on the label, make sure you follow them to the letter as different brands differ slightly, which is why I am NOT giving you step-by-steps here. Have fun!

Encapsulating flowers + such in clear epoxy, what do you..?

use for a mold that will allow the cured epoxy paperweight with the flower in it to break away and not look cloudy or rough? Do you have to polish it afterwards with automotive rubbing compound or whatever eyeglass places use on lenses?Encapsulating flowers + such in clear epoxy, what do you..?
I used a very light coat of WD40 and it came out fine. No polishing. The key is to go light. Spray a small amount on a rag, rub it like your trying to get it out of the mold instead of putting it into the mold. A light film is all it takes.
