That be true, the average industrial user of epoxy gets it either in a RR tank car or a semi tanker. For them a 55 gal. drum is small change, let alone the quantities we use. But it's purpose designed for the end use, so it's not user friendly. Someone like General Motors doesn't care alot about user friendly, they care that it's fast and works for their application. So the companies we buy from use the base material for the epoxy and formulate it to be much more user friendly and package it in slightly smaller containers :)
