What is your definition of 'pit' ? If you are referring to the impact site or drill hole where you inject the resin into the break, no, I have not experienced any thing like that. If you mean the rock chip (the area you have filled with resin), I have had this happen with certain types of breaks..most notably half-moons and bull's eyes, where it looks like an eyelash laying on the glass, or a couple of dark dots. Structurally, they are not usually any cause for concern. Cosmetically, though, wanting to do the best-looking repair possible, these things can be frustrating. Try curing under pressure.

"After" curing the pit?

"Prior" to applying the pit filler?



Is your pit filler contaminated?

Could be.
