I use randys homemade two part. Its easy to make,its very cheap, and it works great.

i too use Randys recipe, but if i were to buy a 2 part again, then it would be back to ESVs B-ionic.

paintbug, why would you go back to b-ionic? I just started using Randy's two-part and it is working great for the little bit of time I have been using it.

I thought you meant that you were going to switch back. Yeah, I bought all the ingredients for all three parts for $25 and this will last who knows how long. Randy needs a prize for figuring this recipe out.
