lykato Posted September 7, 2014 Report Share Posted September 7, 2014 Is there some special type of epoxy used for the JDM clubs? This is the second time my club builder has mentioned that the epoxy used in the JDM clubs are really tough to get loose (S-Yard). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian-500 Posted September 7, 2014 Report Share Posted September 7, 2014 Hahahaha my club builder has said exactly the same thing. Must be some stronger stuff used in Japan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+TourSpecGolfer Posted September 7, 2014 Report Share Posted September 7, 2014 Its mostly 2 part, different brands than what's used in the states. There are a few types, If anyone is interested in ordering a bunch let me know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lykato Posted September 8, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 8, 2014 That stuff is just way too hard to get off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robbie Posted September 9, 2014 Report Share Posted September 9, 2014 the toughest epoxy i have ever encountered are the ping irons from about 5 years ago.......it was nearly impossible to get the shafts off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are a few types, If anyone is interested in ordering a bunch let me know. Any added benefit to using these over what we have available here in the states besides it being like super glue and really really hard to get off?

Baddmnkey Posted September 11, 2014 Report Share Posted September 11, 2014 The jdm epoxies realllly leaves a heck of a powerful stench once heated to failure. They also seem more elastic then the 3m stuff used here in the states. With that said, I would use it if it was available in the US. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chappy Posted September 18, 2014 Report Share Posted September 18, 2014 I've used several types of epoxy over the years, each type with great success other than a particular batch of 5 min epoxy. Is there any derived benefit to using this? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So this JDM is acrylic then and is good for driver heads, as you don't hear the vibration when tapping the butt of the club on the ground.
