SilverCreek 0 Report post Posted June 7, 2021 The resin has too much photoactivator in it. You are literally "cooking" the resin. Put some on a glop on a 3x5 card and smoke it and I think it will be discolored. My resins won't smoke cure crystal clear. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mikechell 0 Report post Posted June 8, 2021 To answer your question, bullhead, yes ... I've had resins smoke when curing it. Doesn't seem to affect the fish's interest in whatever bug I've used it on. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
