Can I use Solarez with no sun?

The only time I can fix my board is after work. Does the Solarez stuff work with no sunlight?

Here's info from the Solarez site:

Q. What if it's not a very sunny day ? answer
A. Anything better than dense fog will work fine. Very weak, hazy sun may take as long as 30 minutes to cure

Q. Is sunlight the only way to make SOLAREZ® harden?
A. If there is absolutely no sun available, or you need to do repairs indoors, a tanning lamp which uses the relatively safe "UV-A" bulbs will work quite effectively. Just be certain to exercise caution with the ultraviolet light - like sunlight, it is harmful to your eyes. Closely follow the lamp manufacturer's precautions.

Ok thx SP.

since I'm not a Guido and don't have a UV light to tan at home I'll fix it during day time.

Yep with a UV lamp or a sun bed you too can have an artificially developed Melanoma which is just as deadly as the outdoors gained one.

Also, Australian women who tan every summer, usually look about ten years older than someone who hasn't, true:shock:
