Of course. There must be something but I haven't identified it yet. The mixing containers I'm using are disposable plastic (no wax) which are the same containers I've used all along in the construction of the boat (without a problem). They actually are surplus trays about 4x5 inches from sterile surgical packs. Because I am using small quantities of epoxy, I am drawing up resin and hardener with a syringe, pushing any air bubbles out and and then squirting it into the tray for mixing with a wooden stick. I have done this before at various stages of the build, with no problem. The graduations on the syringe make the proportions quite accurate.
