Epoxy FAQs
I made a large batch and found a
few areas that are still sticky after most of the surface is cured
hard. What happened?
The material was probably not thoroughly
mixed and
unmixed material was scraped from the container onto the surface. When
mixing, always be sure to mix from the bottom to the top and scrape the
sides of the container and the stick. Experienced users dump and scrape
the mixed material from the first container into a second and then mix
again. This prevents the problem described above.
I made a large batch and found a few areas that are still sticky after
most of the surface is cured hard. Can I fix it?
Yes. First, scrape off what you can. Then
pour or wipe a suitable
solvent on the surface. Wear a respirator or provide proper ventilation
when working with solvents. Wipe or scrub the resin surface. This will
remove residual uncured resin but won't harm any cured resin. Sand the
underlying cured resin and apply a fresh coat properly measured and
thoroughly mixed.
