It is not an epoxy so extra converter is simply adding more acid and rapidly evaporating solvents to the mix.
Thanks for the clarification that variprime is not actually an epoxy. I always wondered about that a bit. But it does make more sense that it is not an epoxy.

Yes, I have a carbon filter respirator. Even though there is much less material in the air during a brush on, the fumes are still dangerous.
