acura3.0cl: hey i dont know if you can reverse that, it might get a little too messy, you can try a razor blade and take it slowly but thats a iffy if you might say. i would toss a fan on it and try another night to see if they might dry??? good luck

scorpio: make a new topic if you need help, but try using the SEARCH button man it helps a lot, clear corners you can get from ebay, as well as an intake, try groupbuycenter.com for some good deals sometimes, need stock part, acuraautomotiveparts.net is the cheapest, for the 3.0 you will need to serach for 97 accord v6 not the v4 cause it wont work. click my sigs for some parts taht will work on the cl, i have an injen intake, check out dustbuster for the pimpest 3.0 on the boards he has a lot of good things done to his car. but first thing is try SEARCHING for it

Are you saying that you didn't mix the 2 parts of the glue together? If that's the case, just add the glue from the 2nd tube. It won't dry until both parts of the epoxy are mixed together. I use epoxy that has the 2 different glues in one container (but in different tubes) which mix together once you push the plunger down:


As long as the epoxy is applied to one side of what you're gluing, it will work just fine. The glue you place on the bottom of the aluminum sill will transfer onto the plastic sill once you set it in place.

The only reason that the epoxy isn't drying is because you didn't mix the 2 parts of the epoxy solution together.
