Summer's finally spreading it's firey wings like the Phoenix, and fading away, leaving room for the gorgeous Autumn weather of the Valley of the Sun. Mighty fine, in other words, my friend. And how's thang's in Texas?

Cool...I'll pass as I already have the first 4...Until he comes out with Vol. 5 by it's lonesome...As John Wayne once said in a movie..."I don't like paying for the same real-estate twice."..."Sands of Iwo Jima" comes to mind...

What is your handling time with this product? I've used BONDO in the past, but productive handling time is usually only 5 to 10 minutes. With total hardness at about 20 minutes.

I would say about an hour or so, before it starts to stiffen up to a point that you cannot sculpt in clean detail. Great stuff!
