Mark,
Is there a way to slow down the aging process in the hardener, like storing
dark or cool?
TIA
Martin

Thanks, Tony. I haven't tried that brand yet. when I worked for Dow,
i did some research on epoxy (dow doesn't sell epoxy resin directly
but sells different grades and hardeners to other people). I often
had several gallons of epoxy and hardener floating around the lab, all
slow curing stuff. I wish I had someof that now!!

I find the Z Poxy sold by flyshops to be the best as far as the non
yellowing goes. Byard might carry it.
