What should be monitored to prevent excessive porosity in resin application?

Monitoring mixing speed and spraying pressure is crucial in preventing excessive porosity in resin application. When the mixing speed is too high, it can introduce air bubbles into the resin, leading to porosity once the resin cures. Similarly, if the spraying pressure is not properly adjusted, it can affect how the resin is atomized and may either create or not adequately expel air from the surface. Proper management of these parameters ensures that the resin achieves the appropriate viscosity and flow characteristics, promoting a uniform application that minimizes air entrapment.

Other factors like mold temperature and humidity levels do influence resin curing and overall quality, but they are not directly related to the incorporation of air during mixing and application, which is what primarily causes porosity. The color of the resin is mainly a cosmetic consideration and does not impact the physical properties relevant to porosity.
