: You would be suprised. You can do it, but wear a respirator (one meant for
: chemical filtering). Then leave until it sets, come back, open some
: windows and air the place out for an hour (turn the heat off during this
: time).
Leaving the heat on with windows cracked open will increase air exchange dramatically. The greater the difference between the inside and outside temp, the faster the exchange. I use this method when varnishing boats in my basement. By turning the heat up to 80 degrees, I get a faster cure time and the solvent fumes from oil-based polyurethane are gone within an hour. The same should hold true with epoxy, although there are no solvent fumes to worry about.
