What is J-B Weld for? How To Repair With J-B Weld

What happens here

Prepare the JB Weld by first ensuring you have a clean, disposable mixing surface, such as a scrap piece of wood or cardboard. The JB Weld kit contains two tubes: one epoxy resin and one hardener. Dispense equal parts of the epoxy resin and hardener onto the mixing surface. Using a mixing stick (such as a wooden stir stick), thoroughly mix the two components together until the color is consistent and uniform, typically a dark gray. The host notes that the mixture will set in 4 to 6 hours and fully cure in 15 to 24 hours.

Goal: Prepare the JB Weld for application.

What they say

Hide

use it's a two-part you have a um one that's the epoxy the steel epoxy right here and then you have a hardener and it's just mixed to a one-to-one ratio you want to mix it really good it does it it dries it sets up in four to six hours it dries at about 15 to 24 hours so i'm just gonna put a couple little dabs i'm not gonna be needing very much i'm just gonna glue it on right there so a little dab of my steel reinforced epoxy and then i'm going to use equal parts right here of the hardener just going to dab a little bit on there and it's not it's kind of like a paste it's not very thick not very thin kind of right in between it's a great for gluing stuff that's not hanging horizontal stuff that's horizontal this this letter actually sits on here it doesn't have an instant tack so if there's too much weight it could fall off so this is kind of an experiment whether it's going to hang on there or not so we'll show you we're just going to mix this up it mixes up to just a light dark gray not light gray but dark gray i want to get it so the color is completely consistent and even like i've had multiple extension poles break that i've glued this with and it dries typically harder than the surface you're actually gluing it to so it's once it gets a steel reinforced epoxy
