If you use Awlgrip you truly need to read up on it and understand that it is both difficult to use at times and produces dangerous fumes. SAil Magazine did a big article last year or the year before on Awlgrip. I have used it on both cats and a 40' tri but I had worked with it before and had been trained to use it. If I remember correctly the fumes put off by Awlgrip contains very harmfull gases. Be well ventilated and use an full face air mask if possible. Good Luck. http://www.awlgrip.com/support/safety/Documents/Guidelines%20Notes.pdf
