My ProKote hardener arrived yellow in colour

I ordered two sets of ProKote thread finisher. Noticed in the second set, the hardener (part B) is yellow and has bunch of floating white stuff in it. I tried warming it up which made it flow better but still little bits and yellow. Any way to fix it? Read it may not look bad if i still mix and apply? or did i somehow receive an old batch or something?

Right in the middle of my first tiger wraps too and dont want to mess it up after all that wrapping :)

Yellowing is normal, both in the bottle and on the rod, but the "floating white stuff" would only be normal in the resin (early crystallization) not the hardener. I'm sure Mud Hole will take care of you if you contact them about it.
