    After hearing a lot about this Aves Apoxie stuff, I decided to give it a try. It was a terrible experience. It stuck to everything and wouldn't hold its shape, even when nearing the one hour mark on its 2-3 hour time span. I followed all of the directions, but I just couldn't get the stuff to work at all.

    Has anyone that used this stuff had this kind of trouble? I got Apoxie Sculpt, but since I haven't tried the other varieties yet I'm not sure what to go by in terms of how firm/soft it should be. Is there any way I can make what I have more firm? Any advice would be greatly appreciated, thanks!

    Make sure you use gloves using epoxy too. Use over time without protection causes skin sensetization, some cases where the finger tips become numb.

    edit: baby powder helps with the stickiness without compromising strength.
