TENAX RIVO 50 Knife Grade EPOXY 1:1-2 Liter KIT

I purchased from Atlas Preservation.com (Amazon) to use in monument restoration here in Ontario Canada. I have used about 1/2 of the product and find that you don't need a lot to do the job of repairing headstones that are broken. I could do two or three stones that were 12 to 18" wide with only a 1/2 cup size portion of each A & B. I always braced the stones so they had support while the Tenax Rivo cured. I gave it a full week but it does cure quite quickly but after a week the bond was 100% and stronger then the marble. Time will tell but it is the best I have found to do this work to date. I amrked my measuring cups "A & B" so I can reuse over and over and a simple margerine container makes a great mixing bowl. Only complaint was the cost to ship to Canada but this has nothing to do with the product.Ron

One of the biggest problem with doing your kitchen counters in granite tile is getting the edge pieces to stay on. You can try mastic, construction adhesive,etc.. but the tiles will fail, fall off, and possibly break your foot, the tile, or your floor. This adhesive is made for stone and adheres to any surface.We did our counter top in granite tile to save money. It is so much cheaper than full one piece granite and looks just as amazing. We have had many complements on our kitchen project and people interested in doing the same to their counter tops. So, if you want to save a lot of money and do your counter tops (cheaper than having Formica installed) granite tile is a wonderful solution. Use mastic on the tiles, and this on the edge pieces and save yourself a lot of hassle and come out with really beautiful counter tops you can place a hot pot on and not worry.Bottom line, Rivo makes a great product well worth the money spent. It is exactly what the pros who do the job right use.

These new cans were not labeled rivo 50. They just said rivo. The description and receipt both said rivo 50. This new rivo is Much Faster than the rivo 50 I have bought in the past. Not usable for the purpose I bought it for. This new rivo should say rivo 20 or 30...this cost me money and a big headache. Do not buy if you need more than 20 minutes open time. Since they took the 50 off of the can label....it is not a stretch to assume they knew full well they sped the cure time up...but left the description as is hoping to gain sales. This kind of thing is often called fraud. I am so ticked off I can't see straight.

Used this to fix a civil war headstone that had cracked in half , it is still holding up well and I imagine the next time it breaks it will be in a different spot. We did a lot of research on what product to use and this performed outstanding as promised by more than one restoration web page.

I had not attempted a tombstone repair before, and this brand came highly recommended by a friend who has used it extensively. Easy to mix and use, and the the repair seems strong. Very pleased.

This product is very easy to work with, goes a long way, and bonds very well with stone. It sets as a "straw" color. We have not tried to add pigment yet.

I bought this epoxy to apply to broken headstones and it works great. Been trying all kinds of glues/epoxies and didn't find anything that works this well. Will be buying again!

This product takes forever / hours to get hard. Can't say if it's because it's old stuff or my expectations we too high
