I recently bought some neodymium magnets.
They are not epoxy coated.
What could I use to coat them, where can I buy it?
Common? Someone has to know something!
I've heard of a dip you can get at home depot. Used to recoat tool handles. Not sure what it's called. Sorry
I am not sure about this handle coating, Canadian Tire sells the same stuff as Home Hardware. Personnaly i would not use this type of coating in the fish tank, It will detoriate after a while. I would more recommend an Epoxy coated paint instead.
I got a can of plasti-dip from home hardware.
I bought the dipping can... waste of $20.
Good for dipping handles... too viscous for magnets(just end up with a big glob)
I hear the spray can stuff works better - I might try that next.
or
I might thin out the stuff I already have.
I have tried it with varasol... but it stinks really bad(even after it has cured)
I might try it with methyl hydrate.
