Resin cure and heat dissipation.

Hi,

I am making a resin river table that is 47mm thick. I am planning on pouring about 10mm at a time to avoid as many air bubbles as possible.

The question I have is this. If I let each 10mm pour get to the B cure stage before pouring the next layer, will I have a problem with heat build up, or would most of the heat have already dissipated by the time it gets to the B cure stage?

Any help would be appreciated.

Many Thanks

DB

Matt,

Thanks very much for the reply. I will seal coat the lot and key it before doing the main pours I think.

Thanks very much.
