Using GOOP Coat It on the lower end of the boat on the transom, outside of boat.
Put on 1st coat, no problem. Cured well. Went to apply 2nd coat, and did not seem to cure after nearly 5 days. Was not wet, but seemed to stay slightly tacky. Weight mix seemed fine (7 parts A, to 1 part B) , just as the first one. I read that if epoxy is tacky, but not wet, you can add another coat and of the weight mix is correct, and it can cure. Next Coat better, but still slightly tacky after nearly 48 hours. Should it have cured yet? Can it still cure, or is it a bad batch and have to strip and start over?
When I went to the second coat, the A part seemed slightly more dense before mixing. Wondering if maybe not sealed well enough, caused it to go bad.?
Any advice or insight is appreciated.
