Thank you. I didn't know this. I used some for a paddle I was going to make out of two pieces of wood glued together to make it thick enough to work with. I didn't end up making the paddle but did cut the glued wood into pieces I used outside. I noticed the pieces had come apart and was surprised. Good thing I didn't make that paddle. I'll stick to the real stuff. Joan > 5-minute epoxy uses a different ingredient (for the hardener?) which makes it > weaker ... and much less water-resistant.
