me too, or do i like the bottom one more! both excellent, but my vote goes for the Ever-Ready, just for the extra detailing on the handle and the 2 tone color
Keep some white vinegar handy and some Q-tips the next time you install a knot. You can use the vinegar to clean up the excess epoxy. As you hold the knot in the handle, dip the Q-tip into your vinegar and apply it to the oozing epoxy
The vinegar needs to be used before the JB Weld or any other epoxy sets up. At first I was doubtful about the vinegar working, but it does very well and will not make more of a mess. Just keep after the JB Weld until the oozing stops. the vinegar will also clean the epoxy off the bristels and your fingers (if you are clumsy like me). Once the epoxy has set, just do a test lather and rinse to get rid of the vinegar smell.
Or next time try and use some RTV silicone. It is very easy to use and not as permanent as epoxy but I have yet to have a knot fall out while using RTV.
