Any tricks to harden tacky resin after it has been installed (occasional user error) or do I need to remove it and start over. Thx.

If you have tried using a hair dryer on it to try to get it to harden, I would say you either have to start over, or try mixing another small batch and pouring over what you have, sometimes it will work and harden up. Make sure your measuring, stirring correctly and the room temp and resin temp is warm enough, if too cold won't cure.

I use 2 part epoxy. Mix the color in the resin before mixing in the Hardner. Make sure to use equal parts of resin and hardner.

Did you clean it with an alcohol solution tissue first?And next... I hope that this does not sound foolish but did you remove the fine cellophane backing sheet? I have three of these in different vehicles, and have not had a problem of adhering even with multi curves in the dash.

This usually means that the ratio of mixing was not exact, or that that the mixture was not thoroughly mixed. I usually use a small bit extra hardener just to be safe and I have not had this problem since. Be careful not to overdue it though, or else the finish will not be as rich and resin-y. There is not a way to fix a sticky job, that was caused by inadequate mixing or uneven portions

mine stayed tacky for a few days, needs hot sun to bake it for a while. It will harden eventually, and look great. I used it on a home made picnic table, applied 3 coats. this stuff is amazing.

Our contractor is going to install it this week. He suggested using heavy duty glue with a few finishing nails to hold it from slipping while the glue drys.

Did it work for you? I have the same issue, broken back side of the canister vacuum. Was thinking of using this epoxy to fix. Would appreciate if you can share your experience,ThanksDevinder

I used muratic acid from the hardware store just make sure to rinse real good and apply sealer shortly after because the metal tends to corrode not long after treatment.

i would say use goof off to clean the adhesive off the factory trim.Then wash off goof off with a mild cleaner. It should be fine.Or even use alcohol to clean off the trim. You have to use alcohol before putting on the wood trim. it worked great. I have had my wood trim now for about 6 mo. love, love, love it.

I had the same problem. The plastic seems too thick, what I did was, I shaved the thickness away with a razor, it is not the best solution but it works !

use chap stick as a lube on the nut after filing lowE string slot. this should help. do this every time you change strings.

I'm thinking the same thing. I would recommend going to the porcut website to see what is in it. The carrier agent (application solution) may affect the resin in the arrow or any coating applied from the factory. I'm pretty sure you can use silicone.

Be careful this stuff can react with some wood finishes. Just pulled some off an armoire shelf and most of it came off but the rest is proving hard to get off. Trying to google a fix now.

it breaks down over time. caused us to loose significant water pressure. I replaced the broken down (and gooey) resin with fresh resin. Problem solved. Only regret is that I didn't purchase the special funnel for adding the new resin back in. I thought I could just use one I had. Didn't work out so well and made a big mess.

HeyI used a rigid pointed tip nail file. Soaked the dentures in warm water. I used vary little because I just wanted a better feel along with my adhesive.It is a trial and error thing but I found I can do better than dentist. Hope it works out, be patient!

I personally have never tried that but I have seen this product - Resin Craft Surface Coat Spray - Fast drying, clear gloss finish/sealer. Ideal for fixing small blemishes in cured resin pieces. I would be interested to see if that works. It is from Environmental Technology.

Must be put in a cool dry place. Make sure exact equal parts are mixed it's important or it won't harden. If mix properly it is usually 24 hours. I put my creations on a tray with a paper towel (you don't want to get this resin on anything it will ruin it) and place in my micro wave over night, just remember not to turn it on. The reason why is if you have animals or children or anything falls on the resin or touches it you won't get a perfect product.
