Dunno about spraypack epoxy, Gene - unless it's in two cans. The stuff
my brother has put on the steel beams of his massive new veranda is
two-pack, not spraypack. The <probably polyurethane> which went on my
kitchen's cork floor nigh on 30 years ago was two-pack, and it isn't
showing signs of wear yet. That is clear, but it must be possible to
tint it, for other purposes.

OTOH, if your swarf is coming off hot enough to soften epoxy, then maybe
you need a really good bake-on powdercoat job? Or stove enamel, perhaps. ;)

Things are quiet here - I've just finished carting and stacking 8 m³ of
firewood under cover, after chainsawing some big rounds, too knotty to
split. Winter's coming. (Well, OK, it's still 27°C/48.6°F in the shade
out there, on the fourth day of autumn, but it's coming.)
