: i plan on epoxy and glass somtime this week. the us composites guy, mark,
: said it was ok to hot coat sealer/glass/fill all about 4 hours apart. is
: this reasonable, or it is better to seal cure, glass cure, fill cure.
Hi Chuck. It's probably pretty hot in Florida so it's going to go fast no matter what. Sealcoat and fillcoat are easy; glass can be easy too but it just depends on how the glassing goes. I generally don't proceed to the next coat as long as the previous is tacky.
Get some rollers if you want to move quickly; it's the only way to go IMHO. Make sure to have plenty roller covers on hand because you have to change them as the batches start to kick. 3" short nap covers are best - foam covers can be used but they drink more epoxy. Plastic roller frames are better than metal (if you can find them); hardened epoxy fuses to metal frames/peels off plastic.
I hope this helps.
