: Hi everybody!

: Well, finally I've tested the resin.

: I've got some resin and two different hardeners. One of my succesfully
: glassed hull and one of my never-curing-time deck.

: I took a couple of transparent little cans (the ones that contains the photo
: film cartridges) and poured 4 parts of resin.

: Then I poured 1 part of hardener ("hull" and "deck") in
: each pot and mix for almost a minute.

: Since my idea was only to see any curing difference, I let both of the resins
: just in their pots, although I knew that eventually they would speed the
: curing process because of the amount of mass confined in the pot.

: To my surprise, both resins cured in the SAME time. It's important to know
: that the room temperature was about 75 F, and the % of humidity aprox 60%.

: I'm just were I began...

: On the other hand, I've never told you that large sections of my uncured deck
: had a whitish haze (not amine blush but something like milky resin that
: was deep inside the glass).

: I think that, maybe, the humidity of that day was "trapped" in the
: resin...

: Any ideas for the future?

: TIA

Marcelo, I agree with Pete. you may have mixed too little. I mix epoxy a full 3 minutes scraping the sides of the container often and the mixing stick too.
