In Response To: First bad batch? (Dean Trexel)

Mix about a cup of white flour and yellow cornmeal. Rub the mixture on your paddles throughly. Then set the paddles out in the sun tommorow. That should eliminate the tacky feeling.

: Last night I applied the second coat of epoxy on 2 new Greenland-style
: paddles (one regular length, one storm) and after a full day, the epoxy is
: still tacky. It can be handled gently without leaving fingerprints. The
: left over 'puck' in the cup is fully cured. Do you think this will cure
: eventually? I had been planning on using these paddles this weekend...
