CPS 45/65 Epoxy was the product of choice for this project. Due to the cold temperatures during this project, between 45 and 54°F, a temperature friendly product was essential. To maintain the proper cure, CPS 45/65 Epoxy was necessary to use to ensure that the project was cured properly and completed in a very short time frame. Without using the CPS 45/65 Epoxy, the six day window to complete the project could not have been accomplished.
