In this video I reveal what I believe to be 5 of the most important tips that I learned from my first time using epoxy to fill some cracks and knots in wood. These tips were a result of lots of research and experimentation prior to filling in some voids on a dining room table. Hope some of you are able to find these tips helpful for your next time working with epoxy!

I actually used to slide these in my sleeves and pant legs to get really stubborn wrinkles free. Super handy.

Extremely informative, thank you, I recently started using Epodex deep pour epoxy on some live edge tables and have had good luck with it. I agree with you, the most important thing is to find the correct tape and apply plenty of it because I did have some that leaked and it was a huge mess. What is the process you use to polish the epoxy to make it shine after you sand it?

Thx. Some truth about the temp relationship helped. I have experimented a lot. The temp is a huge factor. Huge. If your shop cannot stay 70F+, it might take a month or more to fully cure. ;)

Thanks for the tips. I had some old pressure treated wood that I got from work. We would get machinery in on pallets and after it was removed the large pallets would be cut up and discarded. I took home some pressure treated 4x4s that were about 10 feet long. Had them for about 10 years and finally used them to make a frame for an outdoor bench swing. I used epoxy resin to fill the cracks and gouges in the wood and was pleased with the results. One disagreement with your video, I'd rather keep my shop at 67 degrees F. not 77. 🙂

Nice video, about to do my first epoxy, the tips will be helpful. Also: the shelves you have on the wall look great, although some oil could bring out the grain better ;)
