Hi folks, As the winter is here now what is the lowest recommended curing temp for EL2 & IN2.
It is currently dropping down to 6degC here in my shed and I was wondering if the resin will eventually cure at this temp?
Kind regards,

What unused to do before getting my workshop sorted was infuse outside in the cold, then clamp the lines, cut them off as close to the clamps as possible and then put it in the airing cupboard under a duvet with the hot water on for an hour.

With the water on it would reach 40 deg then stay warm all night, easily warm enough to cure fully. As its in a sealed vac bag, there's no smell etc

For larger projects, I used an electric blanket under a large duvet to keep it warm
