waikiore 399 Posted September 16, 2016 Share Posted September 16, 2016 The spore killing ingredient to Everdure was taken out in 1984, as it will also kill boatbuilder. It is only an extremely thinned epoxy now - solvents flash off leaving porosity, don't waste your money. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SanFran 12 Posted September 25, 2016 Share Posted September 25, 2016 Same issue here... from reading, I take it that I should dry out the area, then coat liberally with antifreeze... then What? Evadure AFTER it dries out? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
wheels 543 Posted September 25, 2016 Share Posted September 25, 2016 Yes.However, there is no better solution than removing the old rotten timber and replacing with new. So if at all possible, ALWAYS go for the replace method first. But sometimes that is just not possible. And so yes, spray with Ethylene Glycol. Then pour in the epoxy. Of which you can use normal epoxy resin and break it down with thinners. There are some other cheaper brand names available as well. Evidure is expensive and I always thought it was because of the Biocide. But if that is not longer, then it is just expensive for no reason.I can't remember exactly when I did my training with Epiglass, but it must have been around 89~91'ish and I was told it had the Biocide in it then. So strange being told that if it was removed in 84. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SanFran 12 Posted September 26, 2016 Share Posted September 26, 2016 Cheers for that. Love it when someone takes away the guesswork Quote Link to post Share on other sites
