I know this thread is old but can somebody explain to me WHY is seems to be that people worry so much a little air bubbles in their poly mix? I mean, sure I understand the concept of it but does it really matter if there are a bit of air bubbles - honestly.
BTW, I filled my torque mounts with PL Concrete Crack filler (polyurethane), I have no idea how hard it's going to be, but I suspect it may be harder than I anticipated lmao...
I should have filled it in steps, maybe it wont cure all the way, I might have to drill holes.

OK, go on http://www.mcmaster.com/ and you see the tabs on the upper-left side of the page that says "Find Products" and "Build Order". Click on the "Build Order" tab and in the "Item" box enter the part number for the 60A Flexible Urethane which is 8644K24. Enter in your Quantity in the Qty box and then go down and click "Add".
It will load up and tell you what you have in your cart, look down and click on the "I am new to this web site." option and the page will reload and let you fill in your information for billing and shipping.
Sorry for dumbing this down, but I am ******* bored

I just want to add something I've discovered lately about reducing vibration. Provided you only did the bottom 2 (which are really the only ones worth doing) all you need to due to stop vibrations at idle is remove the nut from the engine lower mount.
The engine is not going to fall off from that single nut missing since it's held by 4 other mounts and the flimsy lower mounts never really supported the engine in the first place.
Not being directly connected to the mount keeps the engine from rattling the car to pieces at idle. However under acceleration and shifts the solid mount still keeps excess engine motion in check. Best of both worlds

i filled my accords front and rear motor mounts with 3M window weld, and thats going past 3 years now. the difference was very noticeable, my engine doesn't even rock, and still to this day the mounts look just as good as the day i did it. just my .02
See for me i am going to be going turbo on my accord and am getting an equal length mani and there is no way for me to keep my front mount. So i am going to fill the mounts and hope that they are strong enough to keep the motor from rocking or damagine the other mounts. also found out that innovative makes track mounts for the accord os im nto sure what i will do the factory mounts look like crap, so thats why i might go innovative
I did all the mounts on my CRX/Civic about 4 years ago, haven't had any problems. I cut up a small 100% polyurethane cutting board to fill the big gaps and then filled the small gaps with the Windo Weld. VERY stiff and I didn't have to worry about it not drying. Windo weld was $7 and the cutting board was like 75 cents.
