Paint problem
 
I was doing a little painting in the garage tonight. When it came to time to shoot the clear, I ran into a bit of a problem. It seems as if my catalist has "gelled". The cap was on tightly and it's only a month or two old, so what happened? Some vigorous shaking seems to of broken it up pretty well, but when I filtered it, I could tell that there were still alot of undisolved solids in the catalist. Hopefully, this stuff will set up correctly.

FYI-I'm using House of Kolor urethane enamel (uc-35) and ku-150 catalist.

Cord I would not use it man. :( :( I know it is tempting but it may not harden correctly.

Hehe. Too late. I rolled the dice last night. As of this morning, the paint wasn't sticky. But you're right, on a couple of the parts I shouldn't of risked the finish.

DO NOT USE!!! It's history, urethane hardeners are very moisture and temp sensitive. If it was close to empty there was too much air-space in container, if it was fairly full, you should be able to exchange it.

Yea, it was about half full. That's my pessimistic view since I'm going to be dumping it. :D
