Title: Re: ShopTalk: Araldite
The stuff I use is labelled K-106. This doesn't
appear on the http://www.araldite.com
website so it may be a local (Australian) release and may be the same as the
models you've mentioned below.

| To obtain completely
satisfactorily and durable joints, the surfaces to be bonded must be
properly pretreated. All traces of dirt, oil and grease must be removed
using a solvent such as Eposolve 70 or acetone etc. Alcohol, petrol or
paint thinners should never be used. |
| Maximum bond strength is
obtained by mechanically abrading or chemically etching the surface to
provide a better key for the adhesive. Mechanical abrading must be
followed be a second, thorough degreasing treatment. |
|
| Storage: |
| The products described on this
web site should be stored in sealed containers at 18�C - 25�C in a dry
place. They will then have a shelf life of at least 12
months. |
|
| Clean Up: |
| Any spillages should be cleaned
up as they occur. Use dry sand or sawdust to soak up bulk or large
spillages, and deposit into waste drums. Clean up small spillages before
they set with Eposolve 70 or warm water and detergent. |
| Tools and equipment should be
cleaned with Eposolve 70 or warm water and detergent before the material
has time to set. |
| Caution: Eposolve 70 contains
Toluene and should only be used in well ventilated areas. Avoid direct
skin contact. |

2012 and 2014.
Just have a heck of a time with the quickset. I'm sure I keep screwing it
up, possibly too cold when I applied it? It finally cures but after usually
overnight, then I'm paranoid the damn heads going to fly off.
Since I'll probably try to hit the club at your shop, Arnie, I hope it's
ok.
