I got everything today and in the box from Hayward they had the same instructions that you posted . It was funny , I ordered from Amazon and when I opened the box , there was another box, addressed TO amazon from Hayward distribution. I then opened that box and there was another box, with the product

I mixed it according to directions and expected , like they said, a consistency like a syrup. In reality, the schmear never dissolves even after an hour of stirring, it is still a lumpy mess . I was really unsure if I needed to put the syrup like consistency on the crack, or if I needed to attempt to lay out the undissolved pieces on it

I really expected this to harden pretty quickly but the amounts I have in the can and on a paper plate seem to be pretty soft after an hour


Also, what would be the cure time for this?
