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.

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.
