yes, since the hardener is a different colour.. It wont matter, just you use extra hardener and it drys faster.. (also gets hotter when setting)

use 2% by weight.. You will get the hang of it!

Somtimes when i need to work with it for awhile, or im mixing alot.. I mix very litte and its workable for a good 8-10min.

alright thanks....well i know how to get the hang of it, i just mix it by feel...and my feel is to put way too much in it. but im finishing my subwoofer box tonight(stretching the fleece over the top and fiberglassing) and i have a limited amout of hardener so i think ill mix it right...also the hardener can get expensive when i keep goin through it.


when u say its a different color tho, the hardener is clear? what do u mean its a differnet color?
