Oils and resin on the wood surface can prevent the epoxy from bonding the wood itself leading to a weak bond. The surface oils can be removed by coarsely sanding (60-120 grit) then thoroughly scrubbing with a strong solvent like lacquer thinner. Bond within 6 hours. Our G-2 Structural Adhesive is a great choice for bonding oily and exotic woods.
