Bulldog44[TK] Posted June 4, 2016 Report Share Posted June 4, 2016 I am using a Japanese brand hobby resin called Wave and the results are very good. But as I use the resin I notice the Part B liquid seems to evaporate out of the can quicker leaving me with a good amount of Part A liquid when Part B runs out. They don't sell just the part B stuff by itself so the surplus Part A is a waste. <br> Is there a reason for this? I recap the cans immediately after each use and store it properly . <br> Can't understand why this is happening. If anyone has had similar experience or know of a way to prevent this please let me know. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GandalfTheImperial Posted June 4, 2016 Report Share Posted June 4, 2016 That is weird... The only thing i've known that does that was superglue, since it's a liquid that becomes a evaporating gas... Just stay away from that brand (Is it epoxy resin, or urethane?) Epoxy resins do have problems... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bulldog44[TK] Posted June 19, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 19, 2016 (edited) Thanks Gerard for Tyler reply. Sorry I am late replying back. I am using Epoxy and I guess that is the problem as you have pointed out. <br>Appreciate your help.

TK4205 Posted June 20, 2016 Report Share Posted June 20, 2016 (edited) Use an oxygen barrier. Canned air works, if you can"t get the barrier. Crack the lid, stick the spray tube in, spray your air for a couple seconds and cap it quick. I use canned air for my polyurethane, which has a short shelf life. Canned air is a lot cheaper than an oxygen barrier too. Good luck. Edited June 20, 2016 by TK4205 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
