Squeegee for epoxy
Posted: Sun Aug 25, 2019 5:42 pm
This tool has turned out to be just about perfect for spreading epoxy for grain-filling:
It's called a Sili-Comb, and comes in a set with several other silicone glue applicators that are also real handy to have around. I don't have any single glue-spreading tool, but switch between these silicone tools, brayers (the rollers for applying ink to carved linoleum-blocks for printing) , closed-cell foam rollers for spreading veneer glue, popsicle sticks, toothpicks, etc. etc.
Anyway, I used a conventional squeegee that I hacked into a smaller, 3" width for spreading epoxy, but this is actually much easier to handle.
