have you waited a full day before sanding? might as well if your not in a hurry. you sure it was sanding resin?

What HR said, and if it's still slightly soft, wrap it in wax paper, wait one more day, and wax will rise.

i started sanding about a week after it had cured
(been bussy laming my board, which has gone fine)
im gonna put on the sanding coat soon, hence my concerns.

Im using the silmar surboard resin, i dont know what the differnce is for the sanding. i thought you could use the same sh!t, I've repaird many dings so im fairly formillir with resin, some times i get that taky flim, its a pain in the @ss cause it clogs the sand paper, and i dont want to go throught tons of paper trying to sand the board.

As far as i cant tell the resin seems to be harder when gellin time are longer, No?

theres lam resin then sanding resin. sanding resin has wax added to it to allow you to sand it without all that goop clogging up your sandpaper. its either called sanding or hotcoat resin. laminatign resin is for cloth and will always gum up unless it is around glass in which case it will sand fine.

oh yeah, i did read that some where.
but where i live there is no place that sells resin except the distributer. They will look at me like i have two heads if i ask for this.
this is who i purchased from Mahogany.
(cataloge>resins>laminating)
sould i get the Ashland tack free cure?
or can i get wax additive?

(i know im may be an idoit, but this is the best thing ive done for my surfing)
