Hello guys,
I am about to do my first project with epoxy and still have a few questions.
I have a piece of wood, that I want to put in a frame which I will then fill up with epoxy.
From this forum I gathered that it would be best to give the wood a thin coating with epoxy to prevent degassing into the main pour.
Usually you are supposed to let the coating cure fully and then give it a sanding before doing the main pour.
Now my piece includes a knothole and has a rough and uneven surface so sanding it seems out of the question.
Should I give it a thicker "thin" layer, until it is possible to sand or how else should I proceed?
Also in the tutorial video with Chris he says that it takes the GC50 about 12 hours to reach the "B stage".
Does that timeframe differ depending on the size of the object or project?
My frame will have a length of 10,5 cm, width of 9 cm and a height of 4 cm.
I would appreciate any advice you could give me,
Tobias
