The following steps show you how to seal the tool against moisture:

	Score the top, sides, and bottom of the tool to allow the epoxy to stick to the tool better. Wipe away all the dust and make sure that all the surfaces of the tool are clean.
	Here are the supplies, a disposable cup, epoxy (I use the slow setting kind), stirring stick, 1" and 1/2" foam brushes. I used a roll of tape underneath the tool to enable application of the epoxy to the sides of the tool. Place the tool CONCAVE side down. The back of the tool will be facing up.
	I cut the disposable cup in half and put all of the epoxy into the cup. Stir the epoxy very well. This is important!!
	Use the 1" foam brush to apply the epoxy to the top of the tool. Go ahead, be generous with the application (just be sure to leave enough for the sides of the tool.)
	Apply epoxy to the sides of the tool with the 1/2" brush.
	Tool is now left on the role of tape to dry for 24 hours. Next, we apply tiles to the top of the tool.
