Can I use TOT! dustless system to flatten the epoxy?

TOT! router sled´s dustless system was designed to flatten the wood.

TOT! router sled can be used for small cracks filled with epoxy with no problem.

TOT! router sled can be used on larger resin surfaces under the following conditions:

ON EPOXY ALWAYS USE A SLIGHTLY LOWER RPM, A LOWER DEPTH OF CUT, AND ALSO A LOWER SPEED OF MOVE


Anyway keep in mind, that the epoxy behaves during flattening totally differently than wood.
Wood is split into small chips and mostly dust.
In contrast, epoxy tends to form long strips that are stuck together. It is more difficult to exhaust these strips in the same way as wooden dust. Epoxy chips can clog sealing brushes and exhaust hoses too.

!!!Epoxy chips can permanently damage sealing brushes if brushes are not protected properly!!!

Here you can see how to protect sealing brushes with strong duct cloth tape.

In large surfaces of epoxy, we strongly recommend:

  1. protect sealing brushes with strong duct cloth tape!
  2. use a 50 mm hose with a dust collector!
  3. check repeatedly sealing brushes and exhausting hose during the flattening of the epoxy surface!
  4. always keep sealing brushes clean!
  5. clean sealing brushes before/after every use!
