how cold we talking ?

and use a heater or a lamp if you can to help speed up the cure time

if you dont have any of that try bringing it inside to try in a vented area

Last winter when I was fiberglassing a small sub box it was 15 degree inside with no sunlight...I didn't have a heat or lamps....so I just mixed the resin a little hotter than normal...

yeah im gonna have to make a rigged up "box" to cure my stuff in this winter. or use an ice fishing shanty.

And far as the best connection ever.......

get a huge fucking battery, cut the top off, drop an alt in there and then pour all that into your big amplifier. or just smelt them all together.
