[pianotech] Bridge cap epoxy

[Dean May]

I asked that question of my local hobby shop owner and he said they use
acetone all the time to thin epoxy. They will build airplane components with
thin cardboard with the thinned epoxy spread on it to give it rigidity. I
haven't tried it myself, but I know acetone thins epoxy.

Subject: [pianotech] Bridge cap epoxy

Hello list,
I've been reading with great interest about the recent articles in the
Journal about treating  bridges with thin epoxy. I am trying to imagine an
epoxy that's thin enough to be put on the bridge cap without it adding
material. Is there a very thin viscosity epoxy on the market that's being
used for this, or the possibility of thinning epoxy with lacquer thinner or
some other solvent? 
Thanks for any input.
