Workin my f/g flares.. Laying some fiberglass and the resin doesnt want set.
Instructions say it should set in 20 mins.. Its been 2 hours, and its still wet. Some of it is hard, and some other stuff is hard as well, but most of it is pretty bad. Any suggestions? Im going to let it sit over night and see what it does. Andrew |

Remember that resin and hardener mixing is a chemical process. The resin cures, not dries. I usually use a little more hardener or MEK than reccomended. Aheat gun can also speed up the process. Test first!
