Oops!!!
Well, this is the 12 ounces of epoxy that came in my trial kit.  It was 95+ degrees out this afternoon and the kit came with a medium hardener.  I thought I'd need all 12 ounces to put on the fiberglass splices.  I was wetting out the first seam when I looked over and the cup of mixed epoxy had melted and spilled all over two of my panels.  After about 10 more minutes, this was all that was left.  I had to scrap and sand the two panels it melted on to get the plastic and epoxy puddle off.

You said 95° but if you are working outside in the sun the temperature will be much higher than air temperature!
