epoxy question

Capillary action.

So did you guys experience capillary action on the channel walls off the poured on areas?

I have done a quick test to see what the epoxy is like.. viscosity wise its really ok on a hot day 25+ C like today.

A gust of wind made ripples in the surface @ 45 min.

@ 4 hours .. the fluid will still flow and close gaps when disturbed.

For my quick test i de-greased some flat metal and worked it partially with the angle grinder to get scaling of... I want to know difference in strenght...
I made some wobbly channel using adhesive glue/kit..

Now on all edges there is capillary action visible... about 5 to 8 mm wide.. in corners it is more.
so a square of 40mm X 40mm gives about 25x25 mm usable flat surface.

Any opinions?

In a word yes! You can file it down but better to make it wider than you need in the first place.
