Liquid Epoxy CRP0015-liquidwood
LiquidWood
can be poured, brushed,
or injected into areas of rot
and reinforces, rebuilds and waterproofs wood by hardening after
penetrating. Considered
both a consolidant
and a primer. - Consolidant:
Consolidation with
LiquidWood is the restoration and reinforcement of wood by impregnation
with a special resin that hardens after penetrating. With LiquidWood, a
piece of deteriorated wood that would crumble under finger pressure can
be impregnated and restored to rigidity, durability, water, insect and
weather resistance superior to that of the original wood.
- Primer:
LiquidWood is also a primer and surface consolidant on rotted and
porous surfaces, for subsequent applications of WoodEpox, paints or
glues.
LiquidWood
consists of 2 clear
liquids: the resin (A), and the hardener (B). When A and B are mixed by
simple stirring, a blend is formed with unusual properties to
impregnate and restore wood and other porous masses.
Restore Rotted Wood in Three Easy Steps
- Prepare
wood: Remove old paint, dirt and debris. Clean oily
surfaces with detergent, water or solvents.
- Apply LiquidWood: To
strengthen the wood, apply LiquidWood with a brush, or pour directly on
the surface. LiquidWood penetrates and hardens.
- Apply WoodEpox
(sold separately): To
rebuild missing pieces of wood and fill cracks and holes, apply WoodEpox. When hard, sand, paint,
stain and nail.

LiquidWood info! Note: 2 pints/quarts/gallons means 1 part of each A
& B for two parts total. (e.g. 1 pint A and 1 pint B
= 2 pint kit). Note:
You can thin Liquid Wood with Acetone (the makers of Liquid Wood
suggest using either Abasolv-their private label and tough to ship,
Zylene of MEK to dilute Liquid Wood), to get a consistency similar to CPES, however it won't have quite the
structural capabilities that undiluted Liquid Wood has.
Normally this isn't a problem as in log repairs the liquid epoxies are
used to fill in the areas where some (punky) wood remains and your goal
is to get a consistency to the liquid such that it will flow into these
areas. Note: Wood needs to be dry to use
Liquid Wood. You can accomplish this by brushing on either Isopropyl
Alcohol or Acetone, which mix with the water and quickly evaporate.
It's always best to to use a moisture
meter to verify wood is dry. Think about this for a
moment...if you leave damp/wet wood behind your patch, there is a
chance of the rot process continuing behind the patch, rotting new
wood, destabilizing your patch (it would now be attached to rotted
wood), and your patch would eventually fall out. Note: Use
above 50 degrees Fahrenheit. Or apply heat lamps, torpedo heater or
other heat source to area within 2 hours of application. Sooner is
better. |

WoodEpox
CRP0015
WoodEpox is a
structural adhesive putty. Most versatile, high-strength, no-shrink
adhesive paste to fill, repair and replace wood. Consists of 2 parts:
the resin paste and hardener paste that come packaged separately and
you mix them together to use.
- Bonds
permanently with high strength to most rigid surfaces
- Fills cracks,
holes and voids of any size without the shrinking and crumbling typical
of common wood fillers
- Can
be sawed, nailed, planed,
sanded and machined like wood
WoodEpox is a
light-weight structural adhesive putty system and wood substitute
consisting of 2 components: resin paste (A) and hardener paste
(B). When A and B are mixed, the blend hardens
within 1-2 hours into a lighter-than-water non-shrinking, tough
adhesive mass with high dimensional stability, chemical, water, heat
and weather resistance. Its appearance is a light
neutral color that can be changed, while mixing, with stains, dyes or
pigments. It has a no-slump paste consistency that
allows it to be applied like putty to fill gaps, holes, or to build up
virtually any thickness and shape. Remember:
Paste
Epoxy (WoodEpox) is for filling, adding and building up.
Liquid Epoxy (LiquidWood)
is for penetrating and solidify punky areas. Note: 2
