Has anyone applied Awlgrip below 55 degrees? If so, how did it cure? There are a couple of areas I need to touch up before I drop the engines in and it will be months before it gets over 55 degrees here.

No, it's a two part system. You need a container to mix the parts. I did it in a spare paint can and then dumped it into a disposable roller tray. As I recall it was around $50 a quart!

$50 a quart is a great price, West Marine charges $79 -$109 a quart for it. I used Vivid Red and it was $309 a gallon, plus another $250 for the converter and reducer. I shoulda' bought a qaurt cause I've got half of it left.
