How can I make epoxy really white?

First you start with a colorless epoxy. Then you can add tint (like from this kit) or any "really white" filler you think you can get away with. Depends on how much strength you need. If you just want a coating, go with epoxy paint. I've used expensive marine stuff that is very white.

you should use buffer,much easier than by hand. it removes a lot of oxidation. boat a boat wityh the sides all chalky white. within a couple hours, boat sparkled.

It's a good idea to rebleach to white if possible to get the full vibrancy of color. Remember to condition!

I don't know if there are other colors. I imagine there is a black two part epoxy, but the only ones I've used in the past are Marine Tex and JB Weld which come white and black parts A and B and finish in varying shades of gray. After Googling black epoxy though, here is one that IS black as well as a choice of 3 other colors: http://www.milliput.com/

White. I don't think they offer a clear one yet. It will leave a residue. Smells awesome though.

To get it really white you have to bleach it then use this but this will tone down the yellow/gold tones. It will not lighten it at all.

Slightly off white but probably as white as you'll get without using plastic. Shows well.

Its probably too late for you now, but epoxy with a thermally conductive filler is removed like any other epoxy. Formulators and packagers like EpoTek have guides. A short list includes; heat until soft (~130C), dissolve using chlorinated solvent (MC), dissolve using non-polar solvent (acetone, MEK Toluene etc), dissolve using sulfuric acid, hydrate until soft using boiling water or steam, use a large thermal difference across the bond line to stress and shear the bond line. Choose a method (or a combination) that won't destroy components you want to keep.

I would use latex. The epoxy will stick better and the finished product will be just as glossy.

Its just paint, so should work. Just remember there are different shades of white. So use sparingly and try a small place first.

Yes, you have to paint or primer over it when its done drying/curing. Other wise it literaly turns white and chalky from sun exposer. It a real thin runny type epoxy. So its difficult to keep mess to a minimal.

Use PVC blue like you use for white PVC pipe. Don't put glue on the inside of the joint because it will block the internal valve.

Sorry I can't help with that question as I returned it due to the finish not being a bright white which I needed.

Again and again. I mix the gels on paper plates. Easy clean up that way. And I also keep the epoxy in a ziplock bag to put away.

White "Gorilla glue" but make sure you put pressure on the glue after application for at least 3-4hours, and read the directions carefully.

All the ones I've bought so far were white but they are paintable to match the color of your soffits. Could use Krylon for plastics.
