Other than outdoor exposure causing one-part epoxy to yellow, durability of two-part epoxy should be very similar.

As far as proper measurements of two-part epoxy, some brands come in a two-part syringe, which assures the proper blend, but I believe you have to wait until you have a decent run of items, because you'll have to use the entire syringe-full in one sitting.

I'm not positive about that last statement.

I wanted to add something on the ink drying topic. If he ink is not *fully* dry the epoxy might still bond, but you will see the flow pattern on the top surface. (flow pattern: the path you used when applying the epoxy.)

Ken,

I'm really not to sure on the printing on paper so this might be a dumb question but is there a special ink that has to be used or can you just use a regular inkjet printer?

I'm no expert, my experience is based on my limited testing with my desktop printer and it's normal ink. I don't know how it would compare with other printers/inks.
