I try to keep my epoxy jugs at 70 degrees or better. The warmer it is, the
easier it is to mix and the more quickly it wets out glass.
A heat lamp does the trick.

Could be - I keep the epoxy in my basement and it's cool (but not
COLD) down there

I sometimes find that they seem to have air caught in them. Pump down.
- cover the nozzle tip with finger then slowly release the pump
plunger - repeat if necessary - usually work in 1 to 2 tries and pumps
normally after that.
I find that the need this treatement after sitting around for a long
time
