These brushes do great work for varnishing and painting. Some professionals prefer them over the expensive bristle brushes. They are also good for spreading epoxy on small jobs and smoothing out bubbles and runs. Be aware that some solvents will dissolve the adhesive that holds the handle to the foam.

Pumps can be screwed onto the tops of one or half gallon bottles. They can be left permanently on the bottles so that at any time you have an easy no spill method to measure out the correct amount of resin and hardener. Both resin and hardener pumps dispenses one ounce for each full stroke. The pumps generally give good service but people tend to miscount their strokes and if a pump malfunctions it may not be noticeable. Its recommended that you pump into the graduated measured mixing pot listed below for foolproof mixing accuracy. We recommend 3 pumps, one for the resin bottle, and one each for the fast and slow hardeners. Definitely worth having!

These pots are very handy, economical and reusable. Hardened epoxy will not stick to the sides and will easily pop out to give you a clean pot for a new batch. They are made of clear plastic with accurate ( some stores sell pots with very inaccurate marks) black graduated measuring marks on the outside in ounces and milliliters.

Good quality foam rollers designed for spreading resins. They make an easier job of spreading a uniform coating of resin on wood and fiberglass or for barrier coating. They can be cut in shorter lengths or even cut in two lengthwise to make special application tools.

This is a really great hand soap for removing epoxy and industrial grime. Before putting this product in our catalog we tested it by letting our Raka employees use it. We also gave it the ultimate test by giving several bars to local auto mechanics. The response was fantastic. Everyone agreed that it was the best non abrasive soap they ever used.
This soap is not expensive when you consider it will outlast several bars of regular soap and has much superior cleaning power. Visit the Cra-z soap web page for more information.

Our epoxy pigments are dispersed in epoxy resin, and will harden in the final mixed resin. These heavily loaded pigments will go a long way. The mix ratio is usually one ounce up to four ounce ( max ) pigment per one gallon of epoxy.

Dry electric heat is ideal for speeding up the curing of epoxy as well as reducing blush. This heater can be used to efficiently heat a tented boat.

We carry a good economy scissor that works well for cutting fiberglass and Kevlar. When used for Kevlar they should be used only for Kevlar and for an economy scissors will cut reasonably good for a long time.
