Hello prospective helpers,

OK, I've worked out that I messed it up trying to extend the 'workable' time by using minimal amounts of the hardener to decrease the setting time. Obviously I used *less* than the minimal amount required for the chemical reaction to occur!



(I'm blaming it on being a different brand than I usually use! I'm more used to that brand's colour and can usually adjust amounts by 'eye', iykwim!)

I was using it to fill in nail holes, dents and gaps in an architrave I made around a window.

Sooooo...... The Bog is now the texture of dried chewing gum. I can 'scratch' it off with my fingernail. I can scrape some of it off with a scraper, but that's going to be a big annoying job, and will mean that the gaps/dents/nail holes will still have the 'unset' bog in them, which makes sanding almost impossible.

Is there any other way of fixing this? (ie, some magic thing I can paint over it to 'harden' it?)

Or..... Scrape out ALL of it & re-do with the correct ratio of bog:hardener,

Or.... Start all over again from scratch with new architraves???
