Hey guys let see if you can help me, I am trying to skinned a product, with carbon firbre, I was told to add catalyst to epoxy. Do this really needed? what is the sense of adding catalyst to epoxy if the epoxy is a laminar glue

it will not work without the catalyst. and it must be mixed thoroughly as well or it will never fully cure as well.

Thank you very much for your quick responds...
According to the seller, he told me that the epoxy contain 3 component, that there is no need for catalyst. I am new to firbre carbon and epoxy, I would like to be sure of what I am doing before I made a mistake

I go so far in mixing that I always double cup just to make sure its thoroughly mixed. By that I mean, I mix thoroughly in one cup and then pour the mix into another clean cup and continue mixing with a new stick. Why you might ask? I have got burn't  with polyester gelcoat not being mixed thoroughly. The result is what I call cancer (crocodile skin, wrinkles etc)
Epoxy is so expensive I feel it worth the added insurance of a complete mix.
Hope this helps.
