spitzy Posted February 11, 2007 Posted February 11, 2007 Is it ok to store resin and hardner in tanks that are coated with hardened epoxy? Quote
Jon Matcho Posted February 11, 2007 Posted February 11, 2007 Sure, but just not mixed together. ;-) Seriously, why not? I wouldn't have a problem doing it myself, but what are you trying to do?

spitzy Posted February 12, 2007 Author Posted February 12, 2007 i have an epoxy pump (MBT-JR from Aircraft Spruce) with flat bottom tanks and a raised drain. this causes problems whenever I want to drain the tanks. My solution is to fill the bottom of the tanks with Epoxy so it is at least level with the drain. Quote
Jon Matcho Posted February 12, 2007 Posted February 12, 2007 Woah... fancy pump! Good thing (for me) they were out of stock when I tried to order one. Are you sure you need to bother with what you're considering? If you must, then your approach should work fine.

Are you sure you need to bother with what you're considering? If you must, then your approach should work fine. You think that is fancy... You should see the new pump that Glenmarc makes... it is sort of like a Portionator MBT JR on steroids with a (several hundred dollar) option for keeping the resin and the hardener vats warmed to 120 deg. No more hot box! Quote
Jon Matcho Posted February 13, 2007 Posted February 13, 2007 You should see the new pump that Glenmarc makes...I could imagine, but in hindsight, I'm actually glad they were out of stock. I'm quite happy with my scale these days. Quote Jon Matcho Builder & Canard Zone Admin Now: Rebuilding Quickie Tri-Q200 N479E Next: Resume building a Cozy Mark IV
