As seen in the pic, the new applicator for t-88 is in caulk gun format. The hardener & resin are obviously separated within the tube, and exit the nozzel separately. Auto-mixing nozzles can be purchased, although theycan be wasteful as they get used one time. Without the mixing nozzle, the tube is great for dispensing accurately into asmall mixing cup...no more mix ratio mess-ups!

Also in the pic is system3 quick cure, with a tensile strength of 2500 pounds, it is great for tacking while the t-88 cures, and can be used for those minor non-structural applications without having to wait overnight.


The clearcoat is a 'varnish', and is totally compatible with t-88, so no masking is needed. Interestingly, the clearcoat has a tensile strength of 7500 pounds and it's not even classed as an adhesive[I used it to set the wing tip foam]....
