Flash Poll: Left-Over Epoxy?

Whenever one uses epoxy there is always some left over. I have often felt the need to have a second small side project going where I could put that left-over bit to use rather than tossing it out. I hate waste and epoxy is expensive.
What are Small Craft Advisor readers doing with their left-over epoxy?
Let us know below!


I saved mine for 30 years and used it on my next boat. I had to heat the base in 140 degree water for a while to turn the crystals back into liquid but otherwise it worked fine. In my experience, if stored properly, it does not separate, evaporate or degrade. It just sometimes crystalizes but can be restored by warming it to 140 degrees Fahrenheit.
I use mine throughout the year to repair anything & everything!!
