150 gr will do fine. If you can set it outside while drying it will cure much faster. Water based products cure reasonably fast but I would wait about a week to be on the safe side.

Sure two will be enough. But if you have some left might as well put on another.

Re: B.E.P. (Breeding Enclosure Project) UPDATE!!!!

So its airing out I am going to cut the tiles tomorrow and everything should be ready to move in by Monday if not Tuesday definetely. Its been sitting since last Tuesday or Wednesday and Ive had a fan to it all day and its getting rid of the vapors. I am using cleaners that I got from a restaurant that are food-safe so they should be animal safe too. They are from Oasis. I have degreaser for stains, window cleaner for the doors, and sanitizer. Works very well. Here are some pics and I put as much clearance between the walls and the vents that I could for the time being until I start school again.

Looks real good. Nice job. What will the holes in the doors be for. If it's just for more ventilation don't worry about it. You already have plenty.

Re: B.E.P. (Breeding Enclosure Project) UPDATE!!!!

Yeah too mmany holes will just make it harder to keep the humidity in. If the sliding doors are glass you'll want the handles on the sides in the center. It will make the weight if the doors easier to control when sliding.
