Devcon is kind of brittle and will crack pretty easy in rocky areas. I have used it in a pinch on plugs and use it all the time for epoxying the wires in darters, jointed plugs, and over my tails on the thread. If it works for you why change. I use sys. 3 clear coat. Harder than e tex, softer than devcon. IMO for epoxies and for the home builder and with what is available out there out of a catalog in smaller quanities and without spending tons of time searching as there are many other products available, IMO it is just a superior product than the other 2 mentioned. Not a lot more time involved with mixing and applying, more time needed for spinning but you are not watching it so not a big deal. There are learning curves as with anything but pretty easily figured out with more use. Spinning is needed, although you can flip but too much babysitting for me. In a nutshell more of a learning curve, and more equipment but worth it for me. Just my 2 cents.
