Yea, I'm just making fuel tanks with it.  I may use it for other things later 
on because I like how it works and flows out, and I actually prefer the smell 
to that of epoxy...

To your other post, there is a styrene wax additive that you can buy, that will 
help cure the outer layer of resin. You just mix it in with the resin.  This 
will prevent the water molecules in the air from getting into the resin and 
lets it cure completely (read without the tack)....  Such as the information 
I've read says... I'll let you know when I try it :-)

Thanks for the bonding information though... I was thinking that you could, but 
just wanted to make sure before I went all crazy building stuff with it...

VE will re-bond to itself, but not to other resins. Dan Diehl just told me
to scuff it all the way down to the glass if I was not going to use VE and
because of the small amount of resin that I was going to need, advised me
not to bother with VE if I would sand it down as he prescribed.

So, I suggest that if you still have a lot of glass work to do bonding to VE
keep going with the VE. However, I think that it is the most difficult of
all the resins, to work with because of the sticky outer layer. It has that
layer because it is made to be used in LAMINATIONS, putting one layer on top
of another. If that is not your purpose, then you are better off to stay
away from the Esters. 

There is a time for building and a time for FLYING and the time for building
has expired.
