What is the lowest temperature can you use this stuff. Also is there a curing time?

I was spraying it on a leak when the temp was 38. It worked. It took about an hour for it to cure. I also used it on a leak I have had for about 10 year. It was in an add on room and to fix it would require that the floor be busted up for the leak gave me no room to cut the pipe and the splice in a new line. I used this while it was still leaking and sprayed one coat at a time giving each about an hour to set up until I had about 10 coats on the leak. That was 7 months ago and I have not seen so much as a drop of water there. I have used this stuff on top of shingles, on metal roof, and one rubber made garbage cans and each and every time it has sealed the leak. I am getting ready to order more because I have a new leak I need to fix.

No, I just tried and the lowest temperature it can be set to is 55 deg F. I read that this is to prevent damage to certain heating equipment.

ALL these products have some off-gassing of potentially harmful VOCs while they are curing. Your best bet is to work in a well ventilated area preferrably where you can put a fan in the window to exhaust outside and keep it running for at least the next 12 hours.

Directions say it can be applied above 40 degrees. At that temp it's very hard to spread. I'll put it on when the temp is warmer from now on.

This container comes with a small tube of hardener with enough to mix entire can. If mixed correctly it will create a hard shell and dries to a transparent ochre brown. If using in a warm climate use less hardener in the mix or it will begin to solidify quickly. Instructions are provided to get correct mixture. Ratio is approx. 1:1, (ex. 1/4 can of resin you would use 1/4 tube of hardener). Working life approx. 12 minutes, cure time 1.5-2.0 hours at 75 deg F/ 24 deg C

Yes, you do. And you need a good one. It is very sticky and does not come out so easily.Use gloves. Humid and warm air reduces curing time.As Thomas said - it has limited time after opening, unless you seal it well.

Rub it with olive oil and place in a 350 degree oven for an hour. Turn off the oven and let it come to room temp

It really depends on how long you leave it in, and possibly how long you let it "cure." The package says to mix it and it's ready to go, but just about everywhere else on the Internet says to let it sit overnight.

Have been using this product for several months - admittedly, over winter here in NZ, so the temperature has not allowed for mould growth. Also use salted butter.

Get some crisco and rub the wik down lightly , put in oven at 200 degrees for 2 hours or more . You will love cooking with this . It will last a lifetime

Thaw it out use it. I think it would be ruined if left at room temperature for any length of time. It should be fine

I've used my Comark from around 60 degrees to temperatures around 350-360 (hot grease for fish). I've never used it to test below zero.

When the two parts are mixed it becomes like a thick cream that can be packed or pushed into a crack or void with something like a Popsicle stick and hardens slowly and cures in about twenty four hours. It cures medium to dark gray.Hope this helps.

Hard to say. I haven't had long enough, but possibly, fill with very diluted bleach and shake and massage well. Maybe put outside in hot sun to kill any organisms. Definitely air dry. Where we live is almost up to 100 degrees F. Outer part of ice bag just damp cloth to clean with. OR let my mother kill the mildew with her dirty looks.

I did mine in the spring (60-70°) and let it cure/dry for almost 2 days in my garage. It rained a few days later and it turned into a light white slime. I do not recommend. But give it a try. Oh and yes on new paint

A batch is six ounces.......it really depends on the ambient temperature where you are working.....don't work in the direct sun. The hotter it is the faster the set up. I poured a table top so I mixed and poured very quickly, but you don't have more than a few minutes to work without it getting sticky on you. Also the thinner the layer the longer the set time, it sets up much faster when it is collected in a cup. Epoxy is not like varnish or paint, the thicker the layer the faster it goes off because of a chain reaction from the build up of the heat that it generates when it cures. If you want to increase the pot life or cure time then spread it out into a thin layer. Also, follow the instructions to the letter without deviation. There is a minimum working temp that it needs to be at or it will remain soft and only partially cured. This stuff is sensitive, takes practice to work with this stuff. But it is worth the effort, the bubbles will rise and break on their own and the surface is crystal clear.

Hi Ann. The label on the can gives all kinds of warnings about flammability during use but mentions nothing about after it cures so, I called the 1-800 number for more info. Angela, in the technical department says that after the product has cured, it's fine. Give it at least 24 hours to cure. If you're really concerned give it 2 to 3 days. Once the product has cured, all flammable contents have flashed off and will not ignite. I had asked specifically about using a 60 watt light bulb (incandescent) in this instance. It should be just fine. Go ahead and make your lamp shade.
