Did you get the mixing ratios right? 2-1-1? Was the hardner old?

Hmm its pretty cold here and HOK UFC35 it dry to the touch for me in seven hours. UC35 is dry for me in five hours. I would bet its the hardner.

Did you by any chance use the HOK Flo Clear? I havent used it personally but Ive heard it takes forever to harden. Al
