: Thanks gain for all the advice. In the end I used the squeegee
: method for applying the epoxy because I sal lots and lots of
: bubbles when I tried the roller method. With the roller looked
: like a zit riled 13 year old girls face and I did not feel like
: having to weight a weak between coats to sand out all the
: bubbles.

: The time line I flowed was:
: Fill/seal coat 8pm to 9pm
: Lay glass on and wet out: 1am to 4am (this was a little to soon
: because the fill coat was a little tacky.)
: Fill coats for glass: noon, 8 pm and 6 am.

: For the final fill coat Dad talked me into using a foam brush like
: a squeegee which seemed to work well and left a loot more of the
: epoxy on the boat. however it did leave more ridges than the
: squeegee which did not lay dow right aways the temperature has
: fallen in to the 60's and the epoxy is more like tar than
: liquid. I am going to go back out now to see how she looks.

: I do have an off topic question for those in the north that don't
: have a real shop. What do you do to heat you work space in the
: winter? Salamander or other kerosene heater?

: The pic is of the hull some time after wet out before the final
: fill coat.

Electric heat is both safer working in a confined space that either of those mentioned (think carbon monoxide) and better if you're working with epoxy as both of those leave fuel residue on the epoxy surface making for problems adding more epoxy.
