Oscar,
That's interesting, and not my experience.
I usually mix my Etex, and then let it sit for five minutes to be sure both components have mixed thoroughly, and that most of the air bubbles are gone. I've never had it set up in the mixing cup, but I've had to hit it with a hair dryer during the coating process, if I'm doing multiple lures, because it did start to get a little stiff.
Maybe there are other variables at work?
