I have yet to decide on the next build so the timeline will probably be spring before glassing and the heat lamps should be fine for that.

Actually heat lamps and spot lights can cause problems if close to a hull/deck during glassing.

Proximity of heating sources will cause off gassing of wood creating bubbles in resin.

Ask me how I know!
