Repairing my Multiplex Alpha (Glassfibrerepair)

Hello,

after a self-inflicted crash (at the start) I am currently repairing the Alpha.
In preparation, I rubbed the hull with universal thinner (sanded off the paint beforehand), rubbed it off with a clean cloth, covered a layer of glass fiber mat (think 100g / m2), and carefully distributed the resin (and rubbed it in with my fingers).
After drying (2 days) and renewed sanding, I had to find out that the bond was very weak and the glass mat applied was rubbery.

What did I do wrong?

Here is a picture.

I would take a look at your resin, some will not harden of the mix is not correct.
