Whatcha doing today?

For epoxy tips, they can tell you how to do it. Heat guns, rubbing alcohol spray, various tints, tricks, etc.

After doing all the boat wood with 4 layers of epoxy I did learn a bit! A heat gun in valuable for the bubbles. I will be living on you tube for a bit picking up on how to! I am looking at doing a white and gray/black look.

I like the fact they say with their product you have time to work it. The epoxy I used for the boat was getting hard within a short time.

This is one u tube with a look sort of what I want. Small area, so the pattern will be kept on the mild side.

So glad I could point you in the right direction. They’re a good company, I had an easy time when I ordered their product. It was the first time I worked with epoxy, on a wall, with the vertical epoxy kit, and oh boy! I was smart and had put tape around what I needed it to stay off, but... I was a bit messy and then I discovered that if you try to touch up an area after it’s starting to set, it still responds quite a bit. So that area looks a bit like the wall is starting to melt. But it came out ok

lol I quickly learned once it starts to set DO NOT TOUCH! And it drips and it is messy. Also bubbles! one of my layers bubble like crazy, a heat gun gets rid of them. Had to sand and do over that layer

 

[JamieB]

Yep, heat gun, and alcohol in a spray bottle.

We miss them also, the campground we stayed at had shut down, the national park is totally booked and it also was shut down for a while.

I’m still awake for some reason. Puppies are teething, I went out to feed them and noticed they have fleas, bathed them, sprayed them with kitten safe flea spray, and they are inside warming up, drying, and sleeping. Until they are fully dry they won’t go out.

It is a 3 hour plus drive, hard to go with no place to stay.

So I set myself a list of chores to do on my two days off, but a headache derailed all that. Stupid tension headache from a muscle in my shoulder going all up my neck and into my face. It finally eased about 4 hours ago, so I got to work. Bathroom has been cleaned and edges scrubbed, ready for a plain mopping. The newest rescue has a thing for peeing on the bath mat, so that’s why it needed deep cleaned. Mini pond filter has been cleaned, beta tank had a bit of a rearrangement, and laundry is in the wash. I still need to finish in the kitchen, and the floor in the sunroom.

It was a rough night. I need to put in a request for time off, extra time to sleep and then a day or two to work on the fallen limbs from that ice storm. My shift was an hour shorter than typical, only 7 hours. Standard for my schedule, but my boss is out today so I had to do books, receive in the truck, do all my normal stuff, plus extra because bosses boss is supposed to be in today... I’m worn out.

@JamieB Hope you don't let them work you to death. Get some rest!

CAREFUL WHAT YOU ASK FOR these idiot politicians are talking another lock down.
