JB weld in particular seems to take much longer than the other epoxy products
I have used ...but man is the stuff tough and durable! I used it to fill in a
sharp dent in a steel frame and I had a heck of a time getting it to stay put!
I would shape it with the putty knife just right and come back half hour
later and it had sagged ...over and over again I did this until it "went off"
and set ...by then some had sagged and remained sagged so I had to add more
and wait ANOTHER day or so! Would have been effort ahead to rotate the frame
(which would have been difficult) so gravity held in the jb weld! ....even
then it would have taken multiple applications ....on a more positive note the
repair was like flawless finally! The stuff is fairly easy to file and sand
..and once painted? The dent was GONE from view!

Boy I bet that added a lot of structural strength to the frame! Couple
coats, sanded, then some undercoating really fixed it. Parts alignment is
crappy but oh well.
