This is a multi-part message in MIME format. ---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment All right guys, here it is, straight from West System - I emailed them = this morning asking about the need for a UV protective coating on epoxy = on a piano soundboard. Their reply: "You only need uv protection when epoxy coating is exosed to direct sunlight. Indirect or shaded areas will survive indefinetly. Best bet for such a coating on a piano soundboard is WEST SYSTEM 105 Resin and 207 Hardener. (We have some stuff coated clear that are exposed to indirect sunlight (thru windows) and they've been holding up fine for over 20 years.)"
