Do you have any products that can be used for laminating/gluing in the 5 to 10 degree range. I work on wooden boats in an unheated shed !!
I have previously used you EL2 product to good effect.
Thanks

The problem you have is most resins and adhesives are not designed for that temperature range when it comes to curing. The cure times can be significantly extended and even stalled completely if cold enough.  We do not have anything specifically designed for curing at lower temperatures.
