Can you epoxy a bar rail?

We recommend that you put the bar rail on first and seal the entire bar rail and all corners with a small bead of Elmer’s Glue or Acrylic Latex Caulk to prevent air bubbles from forming during the epoxy flood coat. Never use silicone or any product containing silicone to seal the bar rail as the epoxy will not stick to silicone products. We suggest coating the bar rail with polyurethane instead of epoxy. Some find this easier than pouring epoxy on the bar rail as the epoxy is thick and can be challenging to get it smooth and even on a curved bar rail.
