High Demand Item – Frequently Reordered by Contractors
Solution 50 is a steel-reinforced, non-rusting epoxy putty supplied as a hand-mixable stick. Each stick holds pre-measured base and activator throughout, so you just cut off what you need, knead it to a uniform color, and apply – no measuring, mixing tools, or guesswork.
Its clay-like consistency stays put with no drips or runs, even overhead, and it can be worked into damp or slowly leaking surfaces. After a 3–5 minute work life it reaches functional cure in about an hour, at which point it can be drilled, tapped, machined, ground, filed, and painted. Color is dark metallic gray. Supplied as a 4 oz stick.
