If you came here from an online forum where folks post questions and answers to questions, you should note there are four kinds of forums. First is the real, proper and honest forum. They work as you would expect them to work. Next are company forums. These are really marketing tools for the sponsoring company (there is a sailing/boating forum sponsored by a major epoxy vendor that fits this example). Most posts ask questions that can be addressed by the vendor's own products or post about how good the vendor's products are. Folks with solutions using other vendor's products, or those that have issues with the vendor's product, don't get their messages posted and are usually kicked off the forum (ask me how I know this). Third are 'vulture' forums. These have a few industry sponsors and when unsuspecting posters ask for a solution to a problem the sponsors swoop down and go into selling mode. There is a garage floor forum like this. I got in trouble with them when I pointed out that one of the vulture vendor's own company web site had copied my entire web page (epoxyproducts.com/cyclo.html) to their web site and was using it as their own and was using my technical knowledge to sell their epoxy on their site. The final kind of forum are 'dead' forums where the most recent posts are months or even years old. Know which forum type you visit. -- Bottom line: many forums are not really intended for the benefit of the individual looking for information and feedback. You will find information here that is "banned" on many internet forums.
Note that modern epoxies do not require an "induction period" or "sweat in" time. This is a amount of time you must let the epoxy sit after you mix it and before you use it. If the epoxy you are considering requires this, beware! It is the sign of a low end product that doesn't have your best interests at heart.

Aluthane is a thin, high solvent level, aluminum filled, one part moisture cured urethane. Color obviously is an aluminum gray/silver. It has amazing adhesion.
