In Response To: Thanks (Malcolm Schweizer)

Sorry to hear about your foaming problem. I live in Mississippi and used Raka epoxy. I have used it in 80 degree weather and the results were great. I have seen my grunge bucket foam and even burp out hot crystalized epoxy, causing me to move on to a new container. If it is a heat-epoxy thing, maybe keep your resin or hardener refridgerated until you mix it, just an idea.
As I am no pro, you may want to see if this is a good idea b4 you try it. And use an old fridge not used for food.

Good luck on the project.
