Hello. Sorry for opening a new topic, i have not found a similar issue anywhere else.
The problem occurs when I m mixing the resin with the combined slow and fast hardner. After thorough mixing, some white flakes start to appear in the cup that float arround. If i mix them separately, the mixing is completely clear. I have tried putting the hardners in the cup firstly and mixing them thoroughly before adding the resin, but with no result, everytime the hardners are combined it is like the resin starts coagulating when mixing.

As I previously stated, my humidity and temperature are controled. The dehumidifier kicks of at 50% rh usually, for this resin I have gone as far as 35 with some great efforts and still no improvement. The temperature also is controled by a thermostat according to my needings. I am more than happy to send the hardner back if easycomposites pays for shipping. I expect nothing else in return, otherwise I will throw it away anyways.
The amine blush goes deep in the laminating layer, after i wash it off with water and soap, when I sand it white spots appear on the surface. Not to mention if I apply subsequent layers at the tacky stage, they will delaminate immediatly. 
And to eliminate all doubts, all the containers are very well kept, in their original one, and the resin was ordered 2 weeks ago. Please do not ask about this again.
