: Depending on what if any coating is on the glass is another

: tint when it mixes with epoxy, and will turn things greenish or
: very green. It's usually what they coat S-Glass with. Volan
: changes the color too, but I can't remember which way. West
: System's new 105/207 has no amber tint, it's "water
: white." It can still have a bit of a blue color in the cup,
: but is pretty clear once it's on.

Yep, clear and much more difficult to tell if it's mixed in the cup than the old amber colored West resin which changed color slightly when mixed.
