Buford Newbie

Hello.
I'm looking forward to being a part of this forum. To start off, i'm not a knife maker, I'm more of what you would call a chemical coating's geek. I was introduced to handle making by Allen at WAS Knive's a couple of month's ago and have completely fell in love with it, so much so that i intend on making it my primary business in the hopefully near future.
I currently own a business in Buford, finishing ( not re-finishing) newly constructed wood projects for commercial and residential shops.
I've been doing my homework on what knife makers prefer for materials to work with and have always been a big supporter of using top quality products to produce the end result.
Here are a few products i will be using.
Alumilite clear and Alumilite 80D for castings
Cactus Juice for wood stabilization
I'm on the fence with PR ( polyester resin ) for Micarta and looking for a less irritating product for me and you. if you have a preference please let me know.
Thanks
Stiffy
