    The vehicle does flash off, though the resin is an oxidation cure.

    Oh OK - so it's not just evaporating, it's something else basically? Thinking about it now it is real quick, I did the gunnels of my 16 ft with the same stuff @ 50 degrees, which was basically slopping on that paint mixed w/ nonskid. It was dry to the touch in hours. With a regular oil base at those temps I would've expected a day to get there.
