Just found a half gallon of Fullerplast and a full bottle of catalist.
It's been in storage for several years, close to 7 if I remember right.
Opened the can and everything looks good. No flim on top or anything. still as clear as the day I opened the can.
Just wondering if it's OK to use it.
I built a new bow lastyear and used spar varnish on it. I'm not happy with the yellowing. I want to sand it clean and spray it with the Fullerplast if it's OK.

Troy, I would be hesitant to use it without first mixing some up and putting on a test piece to make sure it will dry properly.

Do you have any of the Synol thinner to break it down with? You need about a 50-50 mix finish/thinner and the correct amount of catalyst to activate it with.(using a spraygun)The fast thinner will setup quicker, so on hot days I use the medium.Good Luck!

Hoof,
I'm supposed to have some of the thinner I got with the Fullerplast around somewhere. Maybe I can find it as well.

Couldn't fine the thinner that I got with the Fuller Plast so I decided to give it a test run with acetone. Dry time to the touch was alittle over 30 minutes, but it looks good. I also sprayed it on really thick. I'll check the results in the morning to see if it changes and how tough it is.

Ive used it at least that old with good results. I didnt have to thin anything either.
