plus the included gloves keep your hands soft and supple for those promo vids you're famous for.

Sure it is. But it also depends on what you're looking to accomplish. A Hyundai will get you to the grocery store and a Ferrari will get you to the grocery store. If money is no object & convenience is at the top of your priority list, then the expensive epoxy is a great way to travel.:wink: Not sure Enzo will give you a free pair of driving gloves with your Ferrari though.

I don't like you anymore Brett. From this point on, I will only refer to you in derogatory fashion. En gaurde!

I like the box

I'm not liking the vertex stuff. It cures quickly.. But way to quick for me.
It smells disgusting too. Think I'm just gonna stick to ecotech and the other brand of epoxy I was using.

You're missing the point completely... The Ferrari will get you to that grocery store at least twice as fast and when that drive involves you balancing one footed on a wobbly stool, while reaching shoulder deep into an aquarium attempting to reaming perfectly still, speed becomes very important. That and the fact the Ferrari only costs $2 more makes it the obvious car for the job.

I used Tunze Coral Fix 104.74 and that's the stuff I don't like
I used the green and white stuff from Marineland and it wasn't as messy, but doesn't stick as well. And quite frankly I'm sure it's just the Mighty Putty that Billy Mays used to push

I'll have to give the Vertex V-Colla a try sometime - just so I can get some free gloves :rolleyes:
