Anyone who is knowledgeable in home repairs and electronics work know what epoxy is, and how useful it can be. Well, today I couldn't find my metal cup I normally mix it in, so I decided to run up to my bathroom and use a Solo mouthwash cup. Bad mistake. I knew epoxy gets hot because it's a reaction, but I didn't ever imagine it'd be hot enough to burn my hand / the cup.
Call me stupid, but it was a good learning experience. I thought it wouldn't get hot enough to melt a plastic cup, but OBVIOUSLY I was wrong.

Now I know why the tube says, "Plastic Weld" on it.
For those of you wondering what happens: The cup bubbles then burns the shit out of your hand. Don't do it.
