[quote=Dogboy]Temperature definitely also affects cure time. Hotter ambient temp will result in a shorter cure time. Also the vessel that the resin is mixed in. Essentially, the chemical reaction that causes the resin to change from liquid to solid both generates heat while it occurs and requires heat to occur. If you mix up a bunch of resin in a pot it will build up heat and cure faster, generating more heat, curing even faster (a chain reaction called “exotherm”). Once the resin is out of the pot and spread onto a large surface (like the hull), the cure speed will slow significantly. Definitely worth messing around with the resin on some scrap parts (pieces of wood or something) to familiarize yourself with how it works before diving into a full on hull repair. sm[/quote]
