Location: china is great and interesting !!
Been and worked in the tropics for a year !!

Yes even in the tropics we used a tents because of humidity mainly !! The days were 36C and went to almost 40c At night ! but humidity was always in the high 90% and above , so had to be bought down to 70% or lower Ok so you are infusing take the moisture away and temprature changes as well . you had all your stuff under vac for 24 hours before infusing ?
Funny but the moisture came from every where including the concrete walls and floors . The 3 dehumidifyers went for 24 hours a day for 2 days and sucked the place dryand managed to get 69% and wouldnt go any lower !!
Foam loves moisture in all those lovely little poures also your glass!!, say what ever you want but building to survey is done for a reason and when you really think hard all there reasoning is for a good cause and when you build boats and never have a failure or one single problem with anything for any reason then you will understand the reasoning !! peace of mind and a hand shake and a certificate stamped you can walk away knowing the owner got the best he could get !!
