In Reply to: Epoxy Pump - when not "in use" posted by Brenner on July 02, 19103 at 05:22:18:
: I have pumps installed on my epoxy bottles. I put a plastic bag over them and secured it with a rubber band. Is that an acceptable way to leave things? Do I need to take them off and clean them somehow if I'm not going to be doing anything for a few days (like over the holidays)?
Your epoxy will not spoil or anything like that. But,,,make sure that the internals of the pump are not drained down the next time you pump up a batch. Sometimes my epoxy pump will give me a short stroke if it has been sitting a week. just make sure it gives you a full stroke when you are ready to mix.
