In the winter time, if I spray epoxy at 67 to 70 degrees metal temp, it takes a minimum of two days before it can be sanded. Yesterday I sprayed two coats and put the car in the sun for four or five hours. It wasn't even a hot day. I measured the metal temp at 100 to 110 when the sun was not covered by clouds. I pulled the car inside and let it cool for a while, then started sanding. The epoxy just turned to dust!
So, my question is, how cured does epoxy have to be to sand that well? If I can sand it that easiily, should I scuff it before filler, even though it is less than a day old?
