PSA: That new 'quick-cure' sealant for composite panels gave me a false set in under an hour.

I applied it on a small fairing repair in our 70-degree hangar and it seemed rock solid, but it peeled right off when I did the tap test after lunch. Has anyone found a reliable alternative for fast turnaround jobs?

My old shop banned that brand after a whole panel delaminated.

Maybe the cure time is fine but the prep work is way more picky now. That stuff might need a different cleaner or primer to stick right. So much for a quick fix if the prep takes twice as long.
