I can't work that warm. I'd have sweat drops all over everything. Warming the epoxy for me is a big help rthough I expect it would be better to have everything warm. I use System 3 now. Any ideas on what I should consider switching to? I hardly ever have the ability to work over 70 F. Maybe the temperature is why I have such good luck epoxying the fiberglass with a scraper and why it does not work for you. If I switch, I'll need to put down the fiberglass with a roller.

: I think the thin coat of epoxy is going to be the same temperature as the
: wood or glass you are applying it to a few seconds. If you want to wet-out
: thoroughly heat your shop and everything else will keep the resin thin.

: It's not just keeping the resin thin during wet-out but keeping it thin for
: as long as possible. I've had wet-outs where there were bubbles or a haze
: I couldn't get rid of, but because I heat my shop to 85¢ª use small
: batches of resin, and slow hardener, the bubbles have a long time to
: dissipate, and they do.

: From time to time I hear people talking about bristle roller covers and every
: time I've tried them they produce lots of foam, more so than the West
: System foam roller covers. But in any case the key is to go over the
: surface and tip-off the drips, runs and bubbles with a dry foam brush.
