Thanks Bill! I appreciate your response. Hello Robert, Thanks for your reply! 1) I do use an electric mixer and syringes to measure my two part epoxy. I have tried both threadmaster and flex coat epoxy products getting similar results. 2) I have a dryer, and started playing around with hand drying this last go around.......same issues though.....especially the small divots or craters
