[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 942729, member: 2736"] +1 That is the reason that I always recommend compounds designed for bedding. They are all based on some form of epoxy with different strengths, fillers and pot life. The bedding compounds that I like have good strength and toughness and also a pot life of at least 1 hour + @ 70o and do not heat up over 150o (This minimizes shrinking after the compounds cure and the metal cools . If the bedding compound is to hard it will chip and ruin the bedding, some compounds are to soft and never hold the action firmly. A poor choice can lead to a poor bedding job so chose wisely and it will last and perform well for many years. J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
