Superior Stone Products Poly-Epoxy Stone Adhesive – Gallon, Knife Grade
Superior Stone Products Poly-Epoxy Stone Adhesive – Gallon, Knife Grade
The Superior Stone Products Poly-Epoxy Stone Adhesive is a knife grade stone adhesive built on a polyester and epoxy hybrid chemistry, supplied here as a gallon, item 200-10010-12.
Key Features
- Hybrid chemistry: Superior publishes Poly-Epoxy as a polyester/epoxy blend rather than a straight polyester.
- Superior describes it as the toughest bond available in a polyester formula.
- Knife grade paste consistency.
- Superior publishes no hardener ratio, gel time or cure time for the Poly-Epoxy line; use the figures printed on the container.
- Gallon is the second step on Superior's published Poly-Epoxy ladder: quart 200-10010-10, gallon 200-10010-12, 5 gallon 200-10010-25, Big Box 200-10010-30.
Who Is This For?
Fabrication shops that want a tougher bond than a plain polyester gives without moving to a two-part epoxy kit and a mixing gun. A gallon suits a shop using it regularly but not at pail volume.
What This Is Not For
This is a knife grade paste, so it is the wrong choice where the adhesive has to run into a tight rod slot or a hairline on its own - Superior's V-MAX SV-1 is the flowing grade for that. It is also a fabrication adhesive and not a setting adhesive: bonding stone or tile to plywood, backer board, concrete or masonry is the job of the Superior Stone Products E-1500-S Tile & Stone Setting Epoxy.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is Poly-Epoxy actually made of?
Superior Poly-Epoxy is published as a polyester and epoxy hybrid chemistry, which is why it is named Poly-Epoxy rather than being sold as a straight polyester.
What sizes does Superior make it in?
Superior publishes Poly-Epoxy in a quart (200-10010-10), a gallon (200-10010-12), a 5 gallon pail (200-10010-25) and the Enhanced Big Box (200-10010-30).
Is a data sheet figure published for the mix?
Superior publishes no hardener ratio, gel time or cure time for Poly-Epoxy in the material on file, so the container label is the governing instruction.
How much hardener does it take and how fast does it set?
Superior does not publish a hardener ratio, gel time or cure time for Poly-Epoxy in the material on file. Use the ratio and set times printed on the container.
