If you wet-out the glass with shop temps at 80˚+ your resin will be thin and wet-out better.

If you mix small batches of resin and roll it on it will stay thin longer.

System Three epoxy with slow hardener will take a long time to cure allowing total penetration of the glass for a transparent lay-up.

See this video for details.
