Moulds are best left for weeks rather than days before cracking them...gel can take a day or just a few hours to go off before you can start with the
matt....depends on the squirt added.

Buy the buckets from cfs they are as cheap as chips and last ages if you crack the old stuff out....same goes for brushes if you look after them.

Ok matey....suggest you get one of those vapour masks from CFS..(£12+vat).awesome as you can't smell the resin etc which after 8+hrs can give
you a really mad headache....

Be carefull with the catalyst as well as it has been known for it to go up in flames all on it's own....if you spill it make sure you mop it up
with wet rag and throw the rag in a bucket of water.
I bet your wife loves you then Pat, glassing under the house....

3 Layers of matting now applied (1 x 300gsm, 2 x 600gsm). Here it is after the 2nd layer...
 
2nd Layer of Matting
And a close-up...
 
Close-up of 2nd layer
I'm hoping this is probably enough glassing? By my logic, the 3 layers I've applied are the equivalent of 5 x 300gsm layers....
