In Response To: Question: Fiberglassing problem (JayBabina)

I put a seal coat on the deck last Saturday. On Wednesday I sanded with 120 and put the fiberglass and one fill coat on. Another fill coat was applied Thursday. I am working in an unheard basement, normal temp around 60 or so. I heated the area to around 70 prior to glassine. I see from the MAS website that full cure at 60F is 10 days. Do you normally wait for full cure prior to cutting the cockpit and hatches?
