Hello, do you have any resin(or equivalent) that takes 2-5 hours to cure?

In terms of epoxy resins, 2-5 hours is not particularly slow.  Our EL2 Epoxy Laminating Resin with a fast hardener cures in 4-6 hours at room temperature.  You can use the slow harderner or a blend of the two to get even slower times. 

If you need a faster cure our
EpoxyRapid Repair Resin will be cured within 2 hours.

Hi Johnny,

Do you mean "Pot-life"  i.e. the time you have available to work with the resin?

That is normally found in the information on the product, and dependant on the hardener. 

That can be extended if you can work in cooler temperatures, but you will have a higher viscosity too.

"Curing time" is a bit difficult to be precise about, depending of how one defines "cured"...

"Sapere Aude"... Dare to KNOW!

Do not adjust our mind, theres a fault in reality :-)
