Use for extra MEKP?

[Darren Nemeth]

It is near the end of the fiberglassing season for me. Stringers, deck, transom, and bilge are all done as of today.

So far I used 14 gallons of poly resin on the Batboat. However, US Composits sent more MEKP than what I needed.

What can I do with the two extra large bottles of this stuff that sit in the refrigerator?

Set fire to it in the back yard? (wikipedia says it was one of the explosives used in the alleged 2006 transatlantic aircraft plot.)

What else is this stuff good for?

Just keep it... it doesn't really go bad. As long as you store it according to mfgr specs it'll be useful in the future. It's basically a pure (homogeneous) chemical.

PS: It's probably illegal to burn it in your back yard...
