chiprfixr,

I use the DELTA KITS premium bond resin and to date I have not had one repair fail or not clear up to my expectations. For what it is worth, as an aircraft technician my standards and expectations are very high. The appearance can and will vary with any number of given variables we face with each repair..Age, Contamination etc. These factors, a resin by itself cannot overcome. Whoever the manufacturer.

If I may suggest, in addition to just requesting sample resins, also ask to have included the Technical Specification Sheets for each resin. If they will supply it. If they don't have them or wont supply them...well for me that would raise a flag of concern. What these sheets will do is allow you to compare controlled lab test results/ resin specs for each resin and give you a true base line. Real world results may vary slightly though due lack of controls. If you just do your own evaluations make sure all things are equal for all resins tested. This will produce fair comparisons.

One last thing and I might be wrong here, I don't believe any tooling suppliers make their own resins on site. They are suppliers not manufacturers as this would not be cost effective. They outsource a chemical company who specializes in resins specifically acrylics produce their own proprietary formulation/s or worse just use and repackage this chemical company's own industry universal formulation.

If I am wrong on this, I welcome the knowledge and stand corrected.



Pay it foward,
