: Hi Ann,
: I used the MAS "Winter Cure" epoxy at about those same
: temperatures. It worked well, but it does blush. You will have to wash the
: kayak down good with soap and water between coats.

Are you sure MAS recommends using soap. Blush is usually water soluble so just
warm water and sponge/scrub pad will do the trick.

Soap could leave unwanted contaminates to cause problems with the next coat.

System Three, Clear Coat is blush free.

All the best,
Rob Macks
