It's called Rage Ultra Extra. It's new stuff, and it's still hard to find. I had to call evercoat, who gave me the name of a jobbers warehouse they had shipped some to. Then I called my paint store who called the warehouse. It took a few days, but I'm happy with the stuff.

We use Rage Extreme which we like because we get no pinholes and it sands well.
Working time is about 10 minutes which is just fine. Most of the time really fast curing is due to too much catalyst so backing off a little buys working time.

Sounds like RAGE comes in several curing times, I cut back on the hardener (too much) and it cured, but loaded up the sandpaper! The Pronto Kombi Putty label says 10 to 15 minutes at room temp...........its brown in color, so no only good for refinishing, anyone know of a good white putty?

Did you get the white hardener for the Rage from evercoat? Or is it some other brand?

Who knows, maybe they have a sponsorship deal going?

OK, enough of the OT stuff, let's try to keep it serious (even though I derailed it...... sorry..... sorta....).
