That would be the one I have. Since the resin is blue I thought it would dry blue also. not that it matters, what color it dries, it is just what led to my confusion.

Do you have the USC that is blue? Dries pretty clear, I used 2 gallons of it myself.

That and in my case, the garage normally has a ton of mdf dust all over... so what color do you think even clear would turn out :p lol

Yep yep, using the USC, and loving every minute of it.

Resin is Amber or slightly goldish.

i dont know what the hell mike is using but my resin/hardner mix never changed colors.

the hardener i use is also clear, but the resin is slightly yellow

Okay that would explain it. My MEKP is clear. Thanks for clearing that up for me.

mine is red because I have red dye in my hardner

by cargodz » Sun Oct 05, 2008 4:58 pm

Normally the resin... or should I say the hardener put to it that makes up the color.

How come??

I wonder about something...How come all the pix I see of other peoples glass projects, the resin and glass combo look yellow.

Mine is white...Like the color of the fiberglass mat. Is some mat yellow, or is it the resin or what.

I know this is a dumb question to ask but I would like to know.
