emplica vs. putty (epoxy filler)

we have commenced tests on the competitiveness of our emplica plywood panel repair system against epoxy putty.
Results:
Repair with putty takes about 3-5 minutes plus 30 mins. curing time
Repair with emplica takes about 1 minute

Putty repairs are NEVER even with the panel.

Here some "amateurish" images of our tests, which will continue as we try to find out after how many pours the putty will fall out of the damage (already after one pour, water creeps in).
