if you want a definitive answer go on the manufacturers website and if your answer is not there, there will be a phone # listed. Phone them and ask them. There is no set answer for every resin as some only have a years shelf life

I purchased all the materials to build my KR2 in '97 and that gave me a lot of time for the epoxy to sit. I have completed the tail section without too much problem, but if the resin is stored for an extended period as is now it crystallizes and requires slow heating to decrystalize it. I also am needing a better more confident method of mixing the correct ratio on the Dow system 330 from Wicks. Should I scrap the 6 remaining gallons and use something else or just buy some new hardener or any other suggestions would be appreciated. >>PS Mark L., do you still have your original Type 4. I am considering strongly using one instead of the 2180, estimated to install next summer.
