Diamond 2 bottle ID

Sorry to post this question.
I'm about to use some Diamond 2 epoxy and as I only have 2 syringes I want to make which bottle is which.
So, what are bottles A and B? (epoxy or hardener).
Cheers guys,
Phil.

From what I have noticed about epoxy's is that the hardener is usually amber colored, which would make bottle B the hardener.

It does not mater which syringe you use in which bottle, as long as you use the same syringe in the same bottle every time.

many of the "epoxy syrings have a back marking band on one and a white or yellow on the other. to keep confusion down use the back with back capped bottle and the white or yellow with white capped bottle.

So Bill the bottle you mark with an A is that the resin or is it the Hardener as the original question asked? If you are going to post at least try to answer the question.

With Diamond II, part B is the resin, which is the exact opposite of all other rod building epoxies. This won't matter unless you use your syringes with other epoxies, in which case you'll need to reverse them.
