By adding an epoxy resin and hardener to a wet concrete mix, these idiots have just found out about the impressive mechanical properties of “Polymer concrete”.
Normal concrete is high in compressive strength (resists breaking, when squeezed) and low in tensile strength (vulnerable to breaking, when pulled apart),
Compared to normal concrete, Polymer Concrete has significantly greater compressive strength (when being squeezed) and nearly triple the tensile strength (when being pulled apart).
Whatever you do, don't tell these girls about chemicals like Methyl Ethyl Ketone and Acetone which can cause hardened epoxy resin to soften and become brittle, and also don't tell them about Crete wash, a safe and easy product for removing hardened concrete and turning it into sandy mud.
Straight muratic acid would work, too.
I tangled with muratic acid when I helped my cousin milk cows in the mid 70s. Knelt down on my boot while spraying down the down the stanchions. Wanna guess what happened to my ass? Still have the scar!
Lol, didn't think I'd read this sentence today, "Wanna guess what happened to my ass?"🐸
