That moment I realized my filler was contaminated on a Friday job in Phoenix

I was working on a '14 F-150 tailgate, getting it prepped for paint. Sun was already brutal, like 105 degrees, and I was trying to hustle to finish before the weekend. Opened a fresh can of Evercoat Rage Gold, mixed it up, and it just felt off. Started applying it and it was full of little air pockets and wouldn't spread smooth. Figured I must've left the lid loose in the heat. Ended up having to strip all the filler off with a grinder, redo the whole thing right there. Lost about 2 hours and had to mix a new batch from a different can I kept in the shade. Anyone else ever have filler go bad on you in the summer heat?

Man, same exact thing happened to me with Rage Gold last August.

Is it really that big of a deal though? I mean, Rage Gold is like any other pre-workout, sometimes you just get a bad batch or something. Maybe it's just me but I'd give it another shot before swearing it off completely.
