Alrighty....got the floor down, floatation foam in, and the floor glassed in!!! Finished glassing the floor in last night!

Thanks to everyone here who has answered my questions patiently and those in the past who have posted what and how they've done things.

I never could have done this floor replacement if I hadn't found this forum. This place rocks!

Now the next question is...drying time on the epoxy resin I used is 8-10 hours but then it says it will fully cure over the following 1 to 5 days. Can I go ahead and lay my new carpet after the drying time or should I wait another day or two until it's fully cured?

Thanks again to everyone,

Jeff

I think if you wait till it cures, it will be easier to take up the carpet if you ever had to again.

tennpenn,

You would be better off being patient, the longer it cures the stronger it gets. I would give it the full length recommended and then some. As long as there is a sheen on the glass your should be OK with the carpet, just don't stress it until it is cured.

Peace.
