This also works on epoxy primers, and, to a limited extent, 2-part
polyurethane paints. I would imagine that it also works on fuel tank
sealants.

Freezing slows down the chemical reaction and greatly extends pot life.


Its been a while since I took organic chem, but I seem to remember a
rule of thumb that said organic reactions slow down by half every 2
degrees C lower you take them.
