On the bottle it should say something about using a mist of water to help cure it. I would just be very careful NOT to use too much= rust.

usually if application is done in one heavy coat, only the area that is exposed to air cures and almost creates a shell. So what you end up with resembles one of those choclate covered cream filled eggs. Once you get past the shell, it's all gooey.
Next time, fill in small stages. So it will fully cure.

you might need to cut / break off the candy shell, to let the center dry. if you get too much out reaply in stages. I have had that stuff buckle out door shells too so be carefull
P.S. try using a tiny screw driver to poke holes in the "Shell" if the center hasn't set up enough it will expand and come out of the holes you made with the screwdriver.

so if you put expanding foam in a trunk lid, rattle goes away, i will have to try that. now what do i do about a sunroof trying to flex out of the car at 34hz and below?
