I just mixed some fiberglass body filler and applied. It was about 50 degrees outside. This was in my garage with out heat. Was it too cold?

The hardener you add gives a chemical reaction,you should feel it getting warm if mixed properly.

-but that's exactly right- and if it gets real warm, it's too much hardener (and, iirc, the filler can be brittle after drying)

Warm...moist... heat works well for most applications regardless of the outside tempurature :-\".

Sorry to get you off the subject, but my father used to freeze the bondo before he used it. It seemed to give him about 30 extra seconds to play with it before it got hard and unworkable.

OK have at it. pervs
 
''Filler'' usually gets the hardest in the morning just before you wake up.
