: Recently I recall reference being made to the fact that either glass cloth or
: resin....?? deteriorates in storage over time. I may be incorrect, but, I
: think It was George Roberts in a post started by someone else, and under
: another heading, so, I can't find it.

: My questions: How, How much, Time frame involved, Conditions?

: How does it deteriorate?

: How much damage is done and strength lost?

: What time frame are we talking about, and how do we even know how long it sat
: before we bought it?

: Under what conditions will it deteriorate more or less?

: My worries are: I purchased resin and cloth a year ago ( Raka 127 Resin, 350
: hardener and 3.25oz. satin cloth ), and it has been in my garage, in the
: original packaging, in the original boxes, unexposed to light and
: elements. What can I expect to find when working and/or should I?? May be
: starting my Great Auk in the next few weeks and need to know if I'm going
: to lose strength and "peace of mind" in using the materials
: originally purchased for this project. Appreciate any thoughts/facts on
: this from George or anyone. Thanks in advance...
