I need a very small amount of this to attach some magnets to wheel spokes, the kit I bought off eBay has had the card cut down to fit the envelope and half the instructions are missing, is the ratio of resin to hardener to mix normally 1:1 as that's what I am inclined to do?
Any suggestions?

The hardener is usually a lot less?
I would google it.

What size is the hardener packet in comparison to the epoxy packet?
Mix them in that proportion.

They are both the size of a small super glue tube, I literally only need about a finger tip size bit to attach two magnets to bike spokes. Had a look on Google and there seems to be no definitive answer! My own fault for buying cheap on eBay!

If you've got more than you need then give it a test (I use cardboard boxes for testing epoxy consistency normally). It's normally 1:1, especially the cheap stuff. If that doesn't work then try a different ratio with small amounts.

Cheers, gone with 1:1 and seems to have stuck OK so will leave overnight and see how it looks before doing the other one, plus a few other things the wife has identified need bonding.

You and her? Your teenage sons? Your adolescent daughter? |
