With the lock down I've decided to customize a couple of my rifles,
(Jewelling Bolts & Rifle Bedding).
So got the Devcon out I'd bought the last time I done it only to find it was out of date.
Lying beside it was some J.B.Weld, I've looked at the ingredients & they are basically the same.
Devcon
bisphenol A-epichlorohydrin resin.
Hardener-Aliphatic Polyamine
-----------------------------------------
J.B,Weld
Resin-epichlorhydrin with bisphenol A,& bisphenol F.
polymer from formaldehyde & dimethylbenzene.
Hardener-polyamide,aliphatic polyamines,diropylene glycol, benzyl alcohol.
----------------------------------------------
So it begs the question can you use J.B. Weld instead of Devcon.?
Advantages, it would be a lot cheaper, you wouldn't have to buy as much,
so wouldn't have as much waste if you didn't use it all.
Anyone a bit more chemical savvy than me decipher the above, (J.B. Weld has a couple more additives)
better still has any member used J.B. Weld, if so what was the result.?
