If you don't have time to complete it at one setting, don't start it. Freeze/thaw cycles just invite trouble.


george is right

stop rot gives you a whole lot of time

after you have applied it and gave it a hour to work
start with the ears first
then the eyes ,nose,and mouth
try if all possible to do it in one sitting
if your using a knife and a scalple stoprot is just what the doctor
ordered
after youve done a few and get more serious get a round knife
happy thanksgiving
