So, i accidentally grabbed a small bottle of resin IN2 instead if hardener (SLOW) when my hardener bottle ran out and completed the mix with more resin. Ive ended up with a mold with resin in it thats only got half the hardener in it it should have. Shall i bin it all now or is it worth waiting? and waiting ....
Thanks
Ben

I hate to say it but probably not, epoxy needs a very specific range of ratio's to actually cure....

The resin will eventually solidify, but its thermal and mechanical properties will suffer.
