Epoxy for Attaching Stand-offs to Panels
Several people have written to ask me about the “liquid steel epoxy” I mention on this site. It turns out I was calling it the wrong thing; its correct name is Plastic Steel Epoxy. The manufacturer’s product page is here. I imagine that any epoxy would work for the task, but the Plastic Steel formula is stronger for metal-to-metal bonding than the other formulas. I would avoid using the “5-Minute” formulas because the longer set-up times of the other formulas make it easier to get the stand-offs into their proper locations.
