the worst part is buying the mixing gun to apply the epoxy. Other than that it is VERY easy, but as stated you have to make sure that the area is properly cleaned and prepped in order for it to work properly
Xs2 ....the applicator gun is usually available for rent from paint supply stores the one local to me has where you can put 100 bucks down and take the applicator gun and when you bring it back they give you your money back.
i just bought my own bcoz you guys know i do this day in and day out lol
i personally would weld it but if your going to use adhesive (your choice) i would use 3M 8115 ....8115 is some very capable stuff and it is applied to bare metal and features excellent corrosion protection.
otherwise you might be to find a weld for hire ......i know i do a lot of small welding for ppl and i never charge much so im sure if you live in a big city ....theres a lot of starving welders out there in this economy :protest:
