Can you just cut off a portion, make that part wet, wrap whatever you need, and store the rest?
no, once you open it you need to use it all, you can't store it. apparently once the air hits it, it begins to cure.
but you can cut into sections while it's wet, which is what I did since I used the 4" and realized how long it was.
it dries pretty fast but after I read the instructions I realized using warm water made it set faster so I was only able to get 2 slats wrapped.
I bought more, used cold water and was able to get more working time - I also wrapped faster knowing how quick this stuff works.
They were back jumping on the bed within 30 minutes - that was at least a month ago and still holding up well.
My brother-in-law went ahead and wrapped the ones that weren't broken to reinforce the slats, it was cheaper than buying thicker slats :thumb:
Also - this stuff dries like a rock, doesn't look like it's removable at all once it's set.
