hey guys i made two helmets using the standard fiberglass/rondo method and although its been 24 hours they still smell to high heaven, what do i do to get rid of the smell!?
The chemical reaction will continue for quite awhile. Most resin pieces take about two weeks to a month to finish "gassing out" depending on the temperature. If you used very little catalyst there is the possibility that the pieces will never set.
i am pretty sure they are setting. the helmets are already pretty hard. So I guess I will just have to wait it out then? Is there anyway to speed up this process?
Rondo is a mix of Bondo and poliester Resin (usually a 1:1 ratio) which is used like urethane resin for hardening paper projects, like the ones built with pepakura.
