Hello all,
Ive been using CC10/50 for about a year now and recently been experiencing small micro bubbles appearing in my pours. CC 10/50 1kg pack has been laying for some time and developed crystallizing at the bottom.
Ive put it in hot water and let it cool naturally and got it back to a nice clear consistency.  
Mixing approx 90g in 2:1 ratio
Mixing in small plastic cups for 3mins then pour in to second cup with further 1 min mix.
poured in to 3rd cup slowly at a depth of 35mm
used heat gun to pop top bubbles
left to cure over night
any help would be greatly received, thanks

in the morning i can see tiny bubbles thru the entire 35mm depth of the pour

Hi

I've  been having the same issues.

Is there an update from John as to using a new un-opened product?
