How is it looking now? Still greasy?
Some are, yes. I also noticed today that where I spilled some on the top of the metal bottle it dried and there's a greasy pool on top of that as well. Really don't like this cement, do not recommend it.

You might be better off redoing the pvc. Don't want to risk a huge setback on contaminating rock or killing livestock on 20 bucks of materials.
