Monday Melee - Don't do this

Really don't do this on Sunday night - glue up rods late when kinda tired - then go to bed.

Because you wake up Monday morning and realize you had rod bond on your hand and rubbed a chunk in your beard at some point last night....

I currently have a 2" size patch of cured epoxy on my head. What makes it a bit tougher is that my hair is cropped very close to the scalp, #2 blade. I suppose I got to apply the second coat :-)
within 01 12 hours.....lol

Alex - Don't feel bad. I epoxied my jeans to my leg with 5-minute once. It dripped on my knee and I didn't see it. It soaks right through denim!

I once tried to epoxy hair to my head, but, never to my chin.

Maybe you can heat it up enough with a hair dryer to get it soft and maybe try to comb it out.

I have ruined many a good pair of pants gluing up cork.
