I'm wondering about filling my back kerfed linings with epoxy or even another coat of pva. Does pva stick to epoxy? Mike McNerney |

Why? Don't like the kerf in the lining seen get reversed. Don't understand the why reasoning |

It is my own reverse kerf. I figure the more gluing surface the stronger the joint? Mike |

PVA definitely does not stick to epoxy. Bad idea. |

I don't think would be good idea or have good results as wish. That said never tried or even seen or heard of it being done, never heard this discussed, but I miss a lot of things. Reversed or regular lining has worked with out this process well over years. Put in regular lining have good adhesive on lining of the back and fill the kerf gaps. Just kidding but a point. One thing will take a lot of time, could make a mess and possible other problems. However, if want to do it, go for it and good luck with it |

If better glue surface is what you want why not just use solid linings, bent in your bender. Fred |

A question you might ask of others in this is how many have if using good adhesive and technique to the the lining have had lining failure. Pesonally only time has been for me on time know of it was use of bad adhisve or technique. I found that out when bowel sanding. 1 time will make one slow down and do it right. Not saying can't and won't happen over years, but doing what suggesting won't deter that either |

One of the advantages I have found with the reverse kerfed lining is that there is little or no squeeze out...the glue goes into the kerfs instead of squeezing out. However, if you don't like the kerfs, do as Fred suggests and bend solid linings. |
