Troubleshooting
Glue doesn't seem to be setting.
Ensure the resin and hardener were mixed in equal parts and mixed thoroughly. Check the expiration date.
Bond is weak or fails.
Make sure the surfaces were properly cleaned and prepared. Roughening the surfaces can sometimes improve the bond. Ensure the surfaces were properly clamped or held together during the setting time.
