Using this specific product

J-B Weld PlasticWeld Syringe is listed here as the Clear, 25 ml syringe version for repair. For mixing and curing epoxy, the useful question is not simply whether the surface looks finished—it is whether the exact next-action milestone shown above has been reached.

  • For repair, pay particular attention to mix ratio, batch size, temperature and pour thickness.
