In Response To: Re: epoxy sealer for teak before varnish (Walter Kaprielian)

Walt,

Acetone will work, but denatured alcohol is more compatable chemistry... The less thinner yields more epoxy since the thinner flashes off in the cure. What you want is a fluid about the viscosity of half/half cream for coffee. All you're trying to accomplish is to get a firm lock of epoxy into the grain of the wood, acting as a tie coat for the full strength epoxy.

Best regards,

Patrick
