Will cause moisture to condense in the mix. 2. Much more difficult to get good mixing, because the resin and hardener will thicken. 3. Colder, thicker mix will not wet out glass, and will not penetrate wood as well. -- Dave Kruger Astoria, OR *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List - Any opinions or suggestions expressed here are solely those of the writer(s).
