    What do you want to use it for? I have never used it so I don't know if it is safe or not but there might be a better alternative.

    Sure if it's the Oaty plastic epoxy and not for steel I use that as well as the Hercules Chem. for yrs I get that for like 4.50 a tube from a supply house I deal with . If it says for use on ABS PVC or CPVC then its good to go..But nothing metal at all !

    I'm very weary on buying industrial grade epoxy. Dont know if it is exactly the same as aqua grade epoxy but the aqua versions are formulated for use in aquariums.

    You can't blame a reefer for being suspiscious and cautious after caring for expensive acro frags and different acanthastrea species of corals. :D
