: Looks like I might run out of the slow hardener from my Arctic Hawk
: kit from CLC. Is there a difference in the end result using slow
: vs fast hardner. Is the clarity and strength the same?
: The inside of the hull and deck is glassed, outside is not. Thought
: I'd ask before I end up with less than the best looking boat I
: can build.
: Thanks.

Color is about the same, working time isn't. If you do use the fast hardener don't mix much at one time.
