Which should you choose for cure time?

  • - Both products list the same baseline full cure time of 24h, so temperature and humidity may be the deciding factors.

  • - Original Cold-Weld Twin Tube gives more working time before assembly pressure or tooling becomes urgent.
  • - Watch for amine blush risk in humid epoxy work.
