Just need to ask, so would a thin coat of epoxy cure (harden) faster then a thicker epoxy coat? Re: epoxy curing time?

No. It cures by reaction, not evaporation.

It in theory should be the same but.. and I might be wrong, due to their being less mass of epoxy and being that it cures more from the reaction which creates heat it might be a slower cure just maybe due to the not getting the heat build up?? Just a thought!! Re: epoxy curing time?

Yes it would, but the difference we'd be talking about in terms of what you can lay on a guide wrap wouldn't be enough to create the additional heat you speak of. Nor would it confine and contain any additional heat that would be created.

To me it seemed like it did cure a little faster but I don't think not any more faster to notice a noticable curing time. Sorry, only registered users may post in this forum.
