Ls Supreme question

WOW!!! This site has changed alot since I last visited. It looks great. My question is about U-40 dura gloss ls supreme finish. I mixed up a test batch because it has been a while since i last used it. It set up great but it is brown. It also appears that the hardner component has become a darker brown than what I remember. Is there any way to get the brown out or is the finish gone bad? Thanks to all! I'll see you at the big show. I'm pumped and so is my soon to be wife. I was bummed out last year when I could not make it, being I'm only 400 miles away, but not this year!!!

Bring it to Charlotte and swap it with Ralph. Some time back they had some bad drums that leaked iron coloration into the hardener. It won't hurt the performance of the product, but if you find it objectionable just have them swap if for you. They'll be happy to do so.

Ralph will also be bringing a ton of product samples to pass out to those in attendance.

PAtrick - next time you get a bottle of LS Supreme, stick it into teh Refrigerator as teh HArdener turns Amber when stored at room temperature. There's a post from I think March of last year which Ralph posted this, I'll see if I can find it for you.
