Durbans epoxy paint formula ,paint on almost anything 100% water proof & petrol proof

when i did my 60hp points conversion , i was looking for a good paint , found TOPLAC ,at 96dlrs , bought the best brushes , but was unhappy with the finishing touch , could see faint brush lines ,So started some research , but could not find a marine paint to do my hobbies & the colors i wanted , as toplac only have a few colors in the book i got from the fiber glass shop & give me a professional finish . i stared experimenting & formulated my own epoxy paint , which is available in all colors in the rainbow & u can also mix & match to suit the color u want to mix , It sticks on almost anything i could find to paint , wood , plastic , rubber , building bricks , aluminum , steel , polyester resin , & doesn't leave paint brush lines , i have even epoxy coated all the water ways in my motor & did some modifications inside the block with it ,drilling & taping threads into it [ the epoxy mix ] , i painted a piece of aluminum & put it in the oven at 89 degrees heat , & it showed no signs of coming off the steel , it gave me the go ahead , to use inside my motor . It cost me 50dlrs to buy ,as appose to 96dlrs , never mind you still have to buy the undercoat that comes with it ,so the price goes up ,k My mix , no under coat , when i finished there was some left in the tin that had gone hard , so i took it out & left it in PETROL , 3 months , it showed no signs of side effects wot so ever , u can spray it on with a spray gun , by mixing it with lacquer thinner to . I called the fiberglass shop owner over to my house & showed him the difference from his product & my mix , THE MAN COULD NOT BELIEVE WHAT HE SAW , THE GLASS FINISH IS GLASSY , DONE BY HAND WITH A PAINT BRUSH . have a look at the leg of the motor , done with toplac , & the gearbox done with my mix , u will see the difference , cheers if you want my formula ask & i will give it to u ,k

Hi Druban. Between you're Halloween themed motor, machine work on the heads and bullet proof paint formulas, you're becoming our resident evil genius :) Kiwi Power!

Re: Durbans epoxy paint formula ,paint on almost anything 100% water proof & petrol p

epoxy resin name : West System 105
hardener : West System z 206
Paint: Deltron , its an automotive paint , that mixes very well with the epoxy resin & comes in all colors of the rainbow

formula:
6ml epoxy resin
1.5 ml hardener
2ml Deltron paint

mix the paint with the epoxy resin first , when you ready to paint then mix in the hardener , you have 30 - 40 minutes working time , so i mix small amounts at a time just enough to do the job , otherwise it goes hard & you end up wasting .
to spray on mix with lacquer thinners

x 2 to give you more volume for larger jobs , drys after about 6 hrs , 12 hrs very good & hard apply 2/3 coates

No sarcasm intended Durban. I have admired your work thus far, as have others. I would suggest a bit of proof reading on your behalf, however. It's a bit difficult to tell what it is your trying to say exactly.

A wee bit testy aren't we? Simmer down Durban. There is no competition between you and I, or either of our great nations. I'm sorry you feel that way. I would reiterate my concern for your lack of punctuation and grammar, however, but I fear it may be fall on deaf ears. Fair winds and following seas.

So much angst and anger. What a shame. Boating is generally considered to be a relaxing hobby by most, but not all apparently. By the way, there are other punctuation marks aside form the comma. You may find that their proper usage not only makes your own comments easier to follow, but will serve to better your chances of future employment. Just a suggestion. It's certainly not as earth shattering as "epoxy paint" (truly a revelation, aside from the fact that you can already buy it at virtually any paint store), but it may be worth considering nonetheless. Happy boating.

well, this thread has taken an odd turn! .......durban......i have enjoyed reading your posts too! and here, in north america, being called an evil genius is a term of endearment, being called a genius of any sort shouldnt be cause to get your feathers ruffled!! keep up the posts, and the creativity.
