Prepreg resin systems can be purchased from prepreg manufacturers like PRF composites or amber composites.
They are formulated specially to go off at room temperature anywhere between 1-30 days.
You could of course, just use infusing resin if you're gonna use it straight away.

As for ratios, you should be looking at under 50%, so you need to weigh the carbon. If its a small bit, you might need a jewlers scale.
