Yes and no. Yes, you can use and store it for any amount of time as long as the clear mixture isn't mixed with the hardener. Essentially it's three parts to one part. I use a canning jar with measurements on it and three parts of clear to one part hardener and mix it as the instructions state. To be sure, once the clear and hardener are mixed, you have only 2 1/2 hours to use the portion you made up. BTW, note the 4 hours use on the clear can instructions is erroneous. The hardener can instructions state 2 1/2 hours before it goes bad and that's correct. Again, keep the two apart and it will last an indefinite period of time until needed. You must keep the can lids tight. Yes and no. Yes, you can use and store it for any amount of time as long as the clear mixture isn't mixed with the hardener.

It would be very hard. There is a "little can, which you dump into the big can. I don't recall any volumes that you could measure.

Unfortunately you have to use within a short time frame otherwise it hardens and becomes unusable.

I've been wondering that myself. I put this down on my garage floor 2 years ago and there are a couple spots which have come up. I contacted Valspar and they gave me a new set. I obviously don't need the whole thing for a couple spots so I am planning to use a small amount compared to the proportions of the 2 containers (2-1 or whatever).

Hi there ... The manufacturer says to use the entire kit at once. It should not be opened and then the balance stored as it starts to degrade after being opened and then not used immediately.If you have other questions, we are happy to provide you with the product technical data sheet - just email us here at Hardware World!

Make sure you completly combine both parts (quickly) and pour it into or onto evenly. I mixed and poured in small batches. Have lots of stirring sticks and mixing cups!

As jgr says make sure u follow the directions. The package comes with everything. u will only need a container to mix the two solutions together.

I have never tried to do that I like it the way it is, but it is to hot for the rest of the family. I would think if you don't use the whole pack it wouldn't have a good blend. Maybe try it once to see, you can also use the original mix and add a little black pepper and garlic power, I do this a lot and it's not as hot.

Yes there is a lot of mixing of colors. But it is only two colors you have to mix and the mixture is 50/50. Just makes sure you use a pea size amount and start with that so there isn't a lot of waste.

Absolutely yes! In fact, when mixed according to directions, sometimes I get full before I finish it. I cover it with Saran Wrap and have the rest for a later meal or the next day. Stays with me for along as a regular meal would.

It is not necessary to use the entire bottle all at one time. If you are done spraying the area, but the bottle is not empty, you can safely save it for use another time.

I've made a few batches with it and have only made one-quart batches and they have been fine. I don't see why you couldn't do it with a half-quart batch, or smaller. I also haven't made a full batch (two quarts). Hopefully that was a little helpful.

Yes. The machine comes with a recipe book and you could 1/2 the recipe if you wanted or make a full batch and freeze the leftovers. It is a bit of work to clean the machine so I would always opt for a full batch :). We use it all the time though.

I crumble it a little, and combine with water. The package says you can add water or not, but I think it's healthier with water.

You use what you've mixed up at that time. It will store, I understand, for a few days in the refrigerator if not totally used at the time. You need to beat it again to get the air back into the mix again at that time. If you keep it longer than that, it will dry out or spoil. The package was smaller than I'd pictured, also.

You do not need to use them all at once. I have had them for several months and made several batches of sausage. They are packed heavily in salt, so you just take out a few casings as you need them. I usually make 6lbs at a time and it takes only about 3 casings to make 6 lbs.

that is a good question I don't know if you can mix it with that the only thing I can suggest is take a small portion of it can mix it and proceed to what you're trying to do and see if it works out that way I wish I could be more help and hope its mixes well good luck

I have not tried a half recipe yet but I plan to. I dont see why it wouldnt be fine as long as all the ingrediants are cut in half.

Sorry, I don't have an appropriate answer for that since I only mix what I'm going to use right away. However, since there are no preservatives in the product, I would probably refrigerate it if not used within a couple of hours.

Yes, you don't have to mix it. I've used it twice already and I keep it stored in the bathroom cabinet.

No, you have to buy that separately or make it fresh. I bought a mix right from Amazon.
