[QUOTE="Trickymissfit, post: 466090, member: 25383"] I've never seen it, but I also have not been buying it for a little over four years (bought a lot of epoxy compounds when I was working). Interestingly, one thing I found about the Devcon aluminum compound was that it has a very low expansion factor when it's heated up! I can't tell you why or how, but for most of what I was using it for that was critical. Another one that's even better than all the other epoxy bedding compounds is Moglice. This stuff has a shrink factor of .000025", and is extremely stable. The bad side is that it probably will cost close to a hundred dollars for the material alone, and the shelf life is kinda short (ten weeks max). I used it all the time at work, and they'd get rid of it if it was over six weeks old. I dug some vials out of the trash and gave it a try. Nothing comes close except for the red stuff out of Michigan. The shrink factor alone is about 1/10th of what most all the others are. But is also something you don't want to screw up with as it will glue about anything together forever. I'll look around to see if they sell a stainless steel epoxy putty in a little bit. gary [/QUOTE]
