That wouldn’t explain why the resin is still sticky as toffee? In my years of experience using various resins; this really points to poor mixing. Somehow the hardener has not mixed properly with the resin. I well remember in my younger years, thinking I’d mixed resin properly, only to find; even days later that the resin was never going to set, due to a poor mix. This resulted in the sticky mess like you now have to deal with.
