cold day with not much hardner - hours/all day

hot sunny day with loads - 30 secs

Its a case of practise to get the ammounts rite mate, the "pea sized ammount to every golf ball size" that the instructions recommend really is crap (i found)

got a question for you all.pointless like but it does my head in.

how comes you only get the same amount of hardner in fibreglass as you do filler but the ratio is 3:1 instead of 1:1.

the ratio 4 filler is approx. a pea 2 a golf ball and for f/glass ( i take it u mean fibreglass filler) is the same.

filler takes around 20mins to harden with the right amount of hardner at room temp.

i hope you all no if you put to much hardner in it has the opposite effect
