Mixing up a batch of epoxy tonight, and wanting to dye the epoxy black for lower windscreen fairing. I bought a small tube of dye from the local boat supply place (and I though aviation was expensive!), and only indications on the tube is to follow instructions given by epoxy manufacturer. Don't have any such instructions for my West System.
For those who have used a dye in their epoxy, what mix ratio (e.g. drops per pump of epoxy) did you use? Just increase dosage until dark enough?
The person at the counter did not know how much to use, but said if you use too much, it may weaken the epoxy. When I asked what 'too much' is, he did not know.
