What happens here
Use a drill with a mixer attachment to thoroughly combine the epoxy and the thinner. Mix until the solution is uniform. Once mixed, note the current time and place the lid on the 5-gallon bucket. The epoxy needs to 'sweat' (activate) for a specific period before application. For Tile Clad High Solids epoxy, a 30-minute sweat time is required. This ensures the epoxy hardens correctly after drying.
Goal: Achieve a uniformly mixed and activated epoxy solution.
