Hi, Today I did some fiberglass work on my project,
but before I was done the temperature dropped to
around 45-50 degrees. Can anyone tell me if the epoxy
will setup tomorrow when the temperature gets back up
to around 70-75, or will it not cure at all? Hopefully
it is not ruined. Thanks, Rick Wils
With the chance of resoftening at 110 or so ? - why are we not encouraging
the use of heat lamps?

for the fact that my new building is 1,000 ft. or so
from the nearest outlet. I haven't hooked up the
electricity yet. Rick Wilson.
