    Whens the latest to fibreglass?

    I'm just coming to the end of the blocking stage of my pond build and have now started looking at the inside finishing. I have decided that one going for 25mm celotex and then going to fibreglass on this myself.

    With work being crazy I don't think I would be able to fibreglass till the last weekend of October, what are people's thoughts? When would be the latest in the year that people would do this without heaters?

    There will be the standard knocked up cover over the top, and have been really impressed over the weekend that with all the rain we have had the pond hasn't filled up.

    Think there’s a minimum temperature, note sure what it is but with the amount of damp in the air I imagine we’re right at the end of the season now, don’t think I’d want to be doing top coat myself?

    Just did a quick search on forum, rather than duplicate question, Same question here really, sorry for the thread hijack, though i may be ready for this weekend the temperature looks too cold, my kit suggests no lower than 15 degrees Whens the latest to fibreglass?

    So a BIG heater, more additives or try and do it all on Friday which looks best day for next 2 weeks, thats if I can get a day off ??
