I did some layups in 90+ temps. Just make sure that you don't leave any mixed epoxy unattended. Keep it stirred up, and or keep brushing it in. At a 50/50 mix, mine still took about 4 hours to get to the chewing gum stage, and as I recall the fast, is 2-3 hours to get there. I don't think that you'll have any trouble, but if you need any help with big layups, let me know. Steve Brooks --- davidclifford01@comcast.net wrote: > Try Wicks.
