Technical Tips for Working With Epoxies

Working time and cure depends on temperature and mass:
● The higher the temperature, the faster the cure.
● The larger the mass of material mixed, the faster the cure.
To speed the cure of epoxies at low temperatures:
● Store epoxy at room temperature.
● Pre-heat repair surface until warm to the touch.
To slow the cure of epoxies at high temperatures:
● Mix epoxy in small masses to prevent rapid curing.
● Cool resin/hardener component(s).
