: Anyone ever try Mar Pro epoxy? Sold by Donovan Marine to the marine
: trades.
: Bought some to try but NE Marine and industrial did not have any
: product data. They have no website or help line .
: Just tried a test batch with slow hardener. 62 deg. for 24
: hrs.....still soft. Raised temp to 72 deg.for 12 hrs and it is
: still tacky and soft......wtf
: Yes, it is mixed properly.....
: Any ideas?
: Can epoxy take this long to cure and still be good?

Oh yeah, btw, not sure if it's being used anymore, but at one time there was a big deal about using UV setting hardener, would set up eventually exposed to the sun or under florescent lights but takes a really long time. Designed to be used with lights that are very high UV. Also sets up very quickly in the right light.
