You asked about mixing MAS and RAKA brands epoxy during a build.

The mixing of epoxy is not recommended in liquid state. Also don't use one brand hardener with another brand resin. If you change epoxy during a build that's OK just let the one harden then sand it for a mechanical bond and use another. I have mixed by mistake a very small batch and everything got hard but I doubt the quality is what it should be. The mixed batch was used for bonding not glass wet out. Also please check with the manufacturer for their recommendation, (which will be stick with their brand).
