Does X-Pandotite set up quickly?
X-Pandotite is not a quick setting cement. Allow to set hard before exposing to water. Under normal temperature and atmospheric conditions, the material will set up in 24 hours. Can I hasten the set up time? Evaporation of water is the main factor, so making the mixture as thick as possible will hasten set up time. If a faster set up time is desired, X-Pandotite may be force dried by using heat lamps, infrared bulbs, heat guns, or torches. However, DO NOT HEAT ABOVE 200F. Higher heat may create steam and possibly fracture the X-Pandotite. How do I use X-Pandotite in freezing temperatures? The water content in the mixture of X-Pandotite creates a problem in winter’s freezing temperatures. You must protect the material from freezing – the methods mentioned above for hastening set up time would be helpful. What is the “pot life” or workability time of X-Pandotite? Depending on your own personal preference on the water to powder mixing ratio, a batch should be workable for 1 to 2 hours. Th
