I use wax paper on my building table to protect against wood glue and CA but now need to protect against epoxy. What won’t an epoxy stick to? Siran Wrap? Teflon? Parchment or Wax Paper?

I use cut-rite wax paper

Since you already have wax paper and probably epoxy as well, why not mix up a little bit and let it set on the wax paper to see if it releases easily.

Saran wrap works well, also plastic (polyethylene) thicker is better

Thank-you. I, too, use cut-rite but never tried it with epoxy. Wish cut-rite would make a wider roll.

Going to use PTFE paper and follow up. Thanks for your input as it helps.

update - the instructions discuss using ‘peel ply’, a fabric directly on the epoxy while it dries then peels off.

I also use thicker plastic, to be sure.
And you can re use it a few times.
Buy some at the store, or save the one that comes with new furniture, etc.
I ditched saran wrap long ago after some "leak" incidents.

P.S.
I'm still cutting my pieces from the cover of a new box spring mattress set I got a few years ago!!!
Keeps CA, epoxy, Titebond, paint, etcetc off.
