Swifty thread finish is a structural adhesive and has extremely low viscosity.

Larry,
If you have any of the long curing epoxies but find that they are a bit viscous - or thick - you can heat them up and they will become as liquid as water.
It is not a good idea to do this with a 5 or 10 minute epoxy, because the heat shortens the cure time to nearly 0.

However, if you have a 30 or 60 minute epoxy, the added heat will shorten the cure to 5-15 minutes which is fine for many projects.

Take care
Roger

It's primarily aimed at the marine market but I've used it for all kinds of projects where some flexibility is required.
