Q: I would like to know if anyone has used this epoxy on a battery. One of the SLA (sealed lead acid) batteries on my mobility scooter has developed a small crack in the bottom of one of them and is leaking acid. Not much, but any amount is too much. The 35 amp battery still works great, but would cost around $100.00 to r…

Roll over image to zoom in Roll over image to zoom in I recommend you buying another battery. Sincerely it's not safe to repair a battery. You could get burn or another accident. I have repair a lot of plastic stuff, bumpers, truck parts/components, radiators, water deposits, wiper deposits you name it. But never a battery. I have also tried a lot of adhesives and epoxy. And also the plastic welder Kit from urethane supply. However the best adhesion and strength I have acquired is from the 8272 from 3m it is expensive but it's worth it.

Q: I just refinished the kitchen sink and the paint is already peeling. I want to use this clear epoxy to protect the sink from peeling. has anybody use it for that purpose?

This two-part epoxy, when mixed with its 'Part B' hardener (pictured), will cure in an amber color. The final result will *not* be clear.

Q: System 3 suggests mixing by weight for small batches. How accurate must you be (e.g., is 55 to 45 OK)? How do you get that accuracy?

System 3 is pretty forgiving on the mix but does have a volume or weight criteria to follow. Volume is 1:1 for A & B and works out pretty well spec wise. Weighing 100 part A and 83 Part B is the best way to go for strength. 50/50 mix would be better than 55/45 for ease of mixing. A and B with the same volume weigh differently anyway because of their viscosity differences. Have fun and do a sample test! Bob

Q: Would this be good to use to combine Polycarbonate to steel?

We have used this on various aircraft components and airframes. It has worked with polycarbonate and steel in military aircraft.
