Mixing Ratio
This can depend on the application and use of the Resin. For straight forward casts, mouldings and small paper weights 2% Catalyst (hardener) to Resin will be fine. For larger moulds or paper weights and multi layer pours you can reduce this to 1% Catalyst to Resin. For thinner coatings you can go up to 3% Catalyst to ensure that the resin creates enough heat to harden.
Curing Time
This can depend on a few things. Ambient Temperature, Amount of Catalyst Used and Depth of Pour. All these factors can make a significant difference to the curing time from 2hrs to a couple of days if the temperature is very low and the Pour is very thin.
Polyester Resin Characteristics
This Polyester Casting Resin as with all Polyester Resins has a strong odour. You may be able to smell the Resin even though the resin is in a bottle and packaged well.
