Hey. Very well done video! The music isn’t annoying. The information is straightforward and the demonstration is awesome. And since you said ask, I’m asking. I have used 2x lumber I want to use as shelves. Instead of hiding the nail/screw holes I want to use bright colored epoxy. Blues/purples. Some “experts” say I need deep pour. Some say any resin will work. Help please. I’m an old blind chick who wants to get it as close to right the first time as she can. Thank you! 😎

That is exactly the information I need for this table top I am making for a client. I got a lot of old black walnut slabs that were cut in the early 1970's and sitting in the millhouse for all of that time. Bugs got in the wood and did what they do so there are some holes and tunnels that need filling. I was thinking that I would have to make a mold and do the whole thing in epoxy but that would be major overkill as I am not making a river table or anything of the sort. I just need to fill the holes and tunnels and knots. This is the perfect solution. Thanks for the video!

I have had good results from combining unused ground coffee beans in the epoxy. It gives the fill an organic look when planed and sanded and accepts finishes well. Different varieties of coffee have definite different shades of brown which allows you to match wood well, and since we like a variety of coffees, it cost nothing to keep a small amount of each.

Hello Jessy. WOW! Thanks so much for your video, very useful and clear! I would be grateful if you could give me a suggestion. I left a bottle of gel bleach in a bag on the floor. It is an old, light colored, parquet; therefore, there is a very thin line of empty space between the pieces of wooden strips. For some reasons, the gel bleach leaked and, since the bag was not made of plastic (it was a cloth bag), it passed through and got to the floor. It stayed there for a very long time. The gel bleach had the time to literally dig a large hole in the parquet. Which now looks like a crater, about 6 cm or more in diameter, exposing the bottom layer of the floor, some sort of strange material. I thought to fill it with epoxy glue (Gorilla epoxy with the 2 syringes), wait that it dries, and then paint. I am glad to find out that I can mix the paint with the glue itself. I need to fix this quickly. It's not my home. I would be GRATEFUL if you could help me with the following questions: 1) Since I cannot fill from the back side, how do I address the need to leave a thin line between the wooden strips? (yes, the crater extends beyond 1 strip, affecting the two confining strips at its two sides too. 2) If I send you a picture of the parquet (how/where can I send it? Thanks), would you be able to tell me, approximately, what colors of what kind of paint should I buy? 3) I cannot spend much money on huge tanks, so, is the Gorilla Epoxy glue with 2 syringes ( www.homedepot.ca/product/gorilla-epoxy/1000778451 ) suitable for this job and can I mix that type too with the paint? 4) If the epoxy will end up overflowing, how can I gently smooth it without damaging the surrounding healthy parquet? 5) Any other suggestion? Like, if it had happened to you, what would you have done saving as much time and money as possible? THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! I will anxiously wait for your response and my apologies for the long comment. (Loved the leftover epoxy idea! :) ). Kind regards.

Thanks for the comment and support! Not knowing the situation entirely it’s hard for me to comment to exactly the right move here. But, it sounds like you are on the right track. You might be able to heat the excess epoxy with a blow drier (be careful to not get the surrounding area too hot) and then the excess epoxy might get pliable enough to scrape off with a card. But, again, not knowing the exact type of floor it’s hard for me to help you that much. Sorry, this is a tricky question.

My particular knot is about 1.5"x1"x1.25". I wouldn't call it "large" but this is new for me. Based on the knot you filled in the video, I think it's probably ok to do in one pour, but figured I'd ask first.

I ended up getting the total boat 2:1 with medium hardener. Bottles do not give a max depth per pour. I did a test pour to fill a very small through hole in a board (we're talking a cylinder 3/8" diameter and 6/8" long) and it generated enough heat to volcano out through partially hardened epoxy (no heat dryer was popping bubbles anymore). So....I read that you have to time mulitiple pours so that it bonds to but doesn't crack the previous pour. Do you know what the wait time would be for that?

I would be GRATEFUL if you could help me with the following questions: 1) Since I cannot fill from the back side, how do I address the need to leave a thin line between the wooden strips? (yes, the crater extends beyond 1 strip, affecting the two confining strips at its two sides too. 2) If I send you a picture of the parquet (how/where can I send it? Thanks), would you be able to tell me, approximately, what colors of what kind of paint should I buy? 3) I cannot spend much money on huge tanks, so, is the Gorilla Epoxy glue with 2 syringes ( www.homedepot.ca/product/gorilla-epoxy/1000778451 ) suitable for this job and can I mix that type too with the paint? 4) If the epoxy will end up overflowing, how can I gently smooth it without damaging the surrounding healthy parquet? 5) Any other suggestion? Like, if it had happened to you, what would you have done saving as much time and money as possible? THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! I will anxiously wait for your response and my apologies for the long comment. Kind regards.
