# Epoxy Looks Shortfilled?

### Does your epoxy look like this? Don't worry!

 

The plastic can **expand/widen** with the product inside due to the weight/density volume of the liquid.

**Our epoxy containers are packed by well calibrated pumps**, not by hand so there is no human error.

Please see the attached pictures below of the D-Jugs. They only weigh 250 grams which means the plastic is relatively thin.

When filled with epoxy you can see it expand and thus the volume measure on the side is wrong.

**Apply some pressure on both sides to make it stand straight and you will see the epoxy it is on or always over the 2-gallon mark.**
