In Response To: Strip: Fill Coat (Dave Hawkins)

: I just fiberglassed yesterday and need to apply a fill coat, but today it is
: 55 degrees and will get colder during the night. I don't know whether it
: would be better to do the fill coat today even though it is cold, or wait
: until there is a warmer day. Any suggestions?

: Thanks

I'd wait till it's warmer, epoxy doesn't self flatten all that well any time, worse when it's cold.
