Just put a batch on the spinner and went a it's e bit's e lighter from where I would usually go on the hardener and not any crystal issues where as yesterday did have a small issue. Will continue to try this and see if that has been the cause all along. I have had this discussion with Mike Fixter in years past and he too uses this product and has had the crystal issue on occasion too so it even happens to the best of them.

That is interesting. I had a lot more crystals in the batch I did at noon than the one from this morning but I think I caught most of them when brushing it on, i tried to put it on as thin as I could and will probably end up doing a second coat anyways although these look a lot better than yesterdays..

I may need to start thinking about syringes or something to measure more accurately than the little medicine cups. If too much hardener is the issue I may start putting the resin in the cups first. I tend to think I put more of whatever goes in the cup first getting to to the line on the cup.
