MessageMy 420 had crystalised some what and i had seen some people
mentioning heating it gently till the crystals
are gone which took about an hour at 50 degrees or so ( hot water bath) and
the crystals are gone ok
but i am just wondering, it sets in about 6 hours, but roughly how hard is
it normally after 24 hours
I just did the bolt captivity for the quick connects on cs14 and i can file
the 420 it seems about as hard
a a piece of alloy would be, it does however clog the file, and i understand
it takes about a week to fully cure
does this seem about right, ambient temp is about 22c currently
