I've made some parts recently and I've found the open surface has remained tacky although the laminate has cured. I catalysed at 3% as normal but the resin I use (East coast) used to be blue and is now brown. Could it be the resin blend or have I started doing something wrong? Any ideas on if I can salvage the parts with a solvent wipe or something similar?

Answered my own problem, they are bin-bound due to a batch of resin.
