Pot Life calculates resin mix times based on room temperature and batch size.
Pot Life is a timing tool for boatbuilders, restorers, and hobbyists who work with epoxy resins in varying conditions. It helps you adjust standard datasheet specifications to match your actual environment.
Resin data often lists pot life at a single temperature, but your workshop is rarely at that exact point. This app applies the halving rule to predict how temperature changes your working time. You can drag a line across a chart to see the expected spread time for any chosen resin at your current temperature.
The app also warns you immediately if the pair is below its minimum cure temperature. If it is too cold, the mixture may not cure properly. This simple check prevents wasted materials and failed projects before you even start mixing.
You can time your entire batch through stir, spread, gel, and recoat windows. Audio cues and vibrations mark each stage change. A timer guides you through the process so you do not have to guess when the resin is ready for the next step.
Measure the correct ratio of hardener to resin with a built-in calculator. It works for batch sizes from 20 to 500 grams. You will receive a warning if the mass exceeds the standard datasheet limit of 100 grams, helping you stay within safe mixing parameters.
Keep a log of how long each batch actually stayed workable compared to the prediction. This allows you to refine your technique over time. All your data is stored locally on your device, ensuring your history remains private. With Pot Life, you control the timing of every mix with confidence and precision.
