I applied epoxy to my interior on a hot day and have what I think is outgassing bubbles. What is the best way to address this? Sand them out?
Thanks John

useing a slow hardener will help also. any time you speed the cure time you create a place to trap someting,or push the temperature
RE: outgassing bubbbles
Had the same thing happen to me last night, I am using a slow hardener and applied expoxy to the deck using a roller, I used a heavy duty shop towel to wipe down the deck while the epoxy was still curing and the bubbles are gone. Deck looks great this morning expect to the 2 skeeters that like to die in curing expoxy.

Sanding them should remove them or sand a little and recoat then sand some more.
To prevent them apply the epoxy when temps are falling such the late afternoon, early evening. Not in the morning or early afternoon.
