Carole will be in Darwin in a few weeks and me and the dog a couple of
weeks later.
I was wondering about the difficulties in using epoxies in high
humidities. I assume there are tropical formulas but in 90% humidity I
was wondering if they are as good as they say they are and it may be
better to epoxy only in the dry season.

G'day, The epoxies suffering from amine blush (mostly the 4 and 5:1 types) are a pain in humid conditions. The 2:1 types are usually ok. What you do need to...
