: Hi all
: Last night I started joining the halves, laying tape along one
: seam. I used two batches of West 105/206 resin/hardener. The
: tape that I laid with one batch is hard, as I would expect (it's
: been 18hrs since I laid it, and we've had 25C today - about
: 75F).
: But the other half is a bit soft. It's not tacky, but it is a bit
: pliable. I can dent it with a fingernail. I used digital scales
: to measure it out (only about 40g, about 1 1/2oz), but had a
: plastic sheet across the scales, and I wonder if I did something
: like lean on the plastic and compromise the reading.
: Anyway ... the big question is ... do I need to worry and if so
: what do I do?
: I am inclined to think (hope!) that it will harden, since it
: obviously has mostly hardened, just not as quick as I'd have
: expected. Is this true? If you are a little short on hardener,
: does it eventually harden anyway?
: With hopeful regards!
: Ian
If it's hardened to the point it has, it will eventually harden all the way, might take a little longer. The mini-pumps are a heck of alot easier.
