Hi,

I've laminate a sheet of the Diolen 200g black with 72h epoxy (1h work, bought from a local dealer)
the surface was a peel ply surface (the red line one you offer)


I have a specific project with a hard requirement that i need to glue the Diolen to birch baltic plywood.
I've created a test with multiple glues to try and set them up 
But never actually got to test the glues themselves because the surface of the laminated Diolen was the first one to fail, detaching from the wood leaving the peel ply surface on the wood and came out bare bone.

Now one reason can be the epoxy itself, which i think is less likely
The lamination process itself could be the problem? just a fabric on the table with some weight on it (flat object)

Can it be that Diolen does not bond to the epoxy very well?

* I've done a video of the process, posting it is a lot of work for me but if its crucial to figuring it out i will post it per request.

Will appreciate your help, i'm working on it for a long time and its currently a bust, i'm discouraged

Thanks! 
The hardener says 7 days but the resin says 24h, i'm not sure what this means

The product description made me a bit worried thu -
YD-114
is generally used in solvent free coating, floor coating,
trowelling application, crack injection systems, adhesives,
decoupage system, and high solids or low VOC industrial
coatings.


No wording on fabric lamination, do you know this product? is it suitable?

Either way, here is the timeline process:
From lamination to cut - 3 days
from gluing to peeling - 4 days
Room temp is around 25 day and 20 night
So it should have been fine i guess
I've tested gel super glues Smile

Your advice about gluing epoxy is extremely important for me and very helpful!
Can you recommend a glue that will be suitable for the job?

The thing that i'm suspecting is the mixing ratio - it says 3/1 but the orders i got from the store are for 100g resin/ 60g hardener
