thank you all for you're input since i posted this another member suggested using Q-tips
I tried this and works real well but for some reason i never thought to use alcohol to wipe excess
i will in the future and also drill some holes to let it really soak in where a strong joint is required
again thanks to all for the info you've provided
Thinning or even cleaning the epoxy joint with alcohol will make the epoxy not reach a full cure and drilling the holes for the epoxy will only work if you add milled fiber to it. Epoxy by it's self has very little strength.
