Yeah…I use fingernail polish which is a lot cheaper and comes in many colors. It last 3-4 years too.

For webbing and slings, I usually just make sure I’m using different brands than my partners. With so much variety out there, it usually isn’t too much an issue.

Thanks. I figured that was the case, but you never know… stranger things have happened.

Amy, my understanding is that it is only for metal gear. I’m not sure of the impact, but using an epoxy on webbing or cord may have negative effects.

Hey Tom. Sounds great… can it be used on webbing as well, or just metal?
