Hi Matt - I searched Peter's site for "resin", there's stacks of posts and loads of folk seem to replace it themselves. Only found one reply saying ". . . and just bin it."

To be on the safe side, have the replacement packaging handy and phone your local Environmental Health office and ask their advice on how to dispose of it.

Having said all that, you'll probably get all the wfp dealers replying to you on Monday!

Matt
I have changed my resin a few times which i do outdoors so the only precaution i take is to wear a pair of disposable gloves becauuse the resin can be an irritant to the skin.
