Default Epoxy? In need some tips scratch

Hi guys,
I have allways been blown away with how good Scratch makes his epoxy buzzers.
I was in Maplin today and i bought a Bondloc 5 min epoxy.
Is this stuff what i am after?

Any top tips for epoxy Buzzers?

How do you add colour to the epoxy in the thorax areas Scratch?

Cheers

Munro

Unless I'm mistaken, scratch uses Sally's HAN on his buzzers - several coats with a bottle of slightly older, less viscous stuff put to one side for the thorax 'bulge'.
I'm sure the bumder himself will shortly be along to set the record straight....

Indeed, just 3 coats of SHHAN. Plenty of drying time between the coats.... like, 12 hours minimum.
