Epoxy

The setting time is around 40 hrs. in a well ventilated area. The kick temperatures are the same as for uncut mixtures, repeat coats must be done within product windows unless using a no blush epoxy. Regular epoxy takes 3-5 coats for waterproofing thinned will never make it. Heating and thinning epoxy will alter strength values... not an issue here.
Note: Coast Guard standard for waterproof glue is boiling glued sections for 1 hour (last time I checked) resoucinal is still king. Most off the shelf epoxies fail at a lower temp.
