Yes it will adhere just fine. The only thing you don't want to do is mix the components. Don't use one resin with the others hardener, because they may be formulated differently.

They will adhere to each other after curing or even when green. You could use one for the glassing and the other for the finish coats with no trouble. You could even switch halfway through with no effect. Just remember that they will cure at slightly different rates.
