My club got moved about 30 minutes in to epoxy curing, need to restart?

Put my club in my car to make it cure faster since it’s so hot out. 30 minutes later I went to run an errand and forgot the club was in the back. Shaft didn’t come out, but definitely spun around in the head, epoxy still very slick as it spun very easily. Need to restart the process?

If it’s 24 hour epoxy then no you should be fine. Can always redo it for peace of mind though.

You don't give any details on what epoxy, and that's pretty important here 😄

 

If it has a long working time it should be fine as you were not heating it long enough to 1/2 the drying time (100-120f I estimate in car for 30m)

 

I'd just re-do it, takes 5m and use a heat gun at a distance on your work bench to cure it...then go have fun in the car 🙂

Dude, do you not have a blow-dryer? Sit it on the floor and point the blow dryer at it set on medium heat. Far better than the car on a hot day. A blow-dryer does not get as hot as a heat gun and can be placed on just about any floor. You'll need to put it much close to the club though.

What is your swing speed? If the tour vans can use quick dry epoxy, avg golfers can to. Now I recognize if one is gluing up a full iron set, 24 hour epoxy makes it so you can make one batch with plenty of time to put 7 clubs together. But if you are gluing one or two clubs, the quick set epoxy should work.
