I've been working on a lot of fiberglass right now and it's taking forever for the fiberglass to kick. Today it was in the low to mid 50's. I mixed a medium size batch for the length of my centerboard's leading edge, mixed in some 404 filler and started pouring. An hour and a half later and it doesnt appear as if it's hardened at all. It appears as if a lot of very small bubbles are forming after 30-45 mins. This happened on two separate occasions. I started packing up 1.5-2 hours later and It appeared to be the same viscosity as when I first mixed it. This is the third fiberglass project with this batch of resin. The fist two acted the same but they were hard when I came back the next day. I even used a heatgun on the second project with no noticeable difference.
We're seeing temperatures ranging from high 50's to low 70's right now. I'm using 205 fast hardener. Container dimensions don't seem to have an impact on cure times. How long does it take for your resin to kick?
