horologist Posted July 20, 2013 Report Share Posted July 20, 2013 I am going crazy sifting through the archives here to find an article on the best way to place a dial without dial feet on movement so that it is easily removed at service time? I recall reading it here many moons ago, but just cannot find it. Someone mentioned to me that his watchmaker uses epoxy resin but I am worried that it may be too strong and could damage the dial by trying to remove it at service time. Does anyone recall this topic? Many thanks in advance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not so sure I understand what you mean? Is it a product or do you use epoxy resin with just a few dots? Thanks!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whoopy12 Posted July 21, 2013 Report Share Posted July 21, 2013 Thanks for your reply. Could you please clarify. I am not so sure I understand what you mean? Is it a product or do you use epoxy resin with just a few dots? Thanks!!! It's essentially double-sided adhesive-backed "dots".
