I paint complete cars, with additional pots sitting in the water ready to switch. Don't have any issues with pot life.
An hour of spraying one paint is a long time. Are you mixing enough for a number of coats and doing several coats including the flash time in your hour?
Generally, not just epoxy, I find if I mix enough for more than one coat I end up rushing the flash time and get a dogs dinner. Not having the paint for the next coat ready makes it easier to stop for a cup of tea and then mix the paint before applying the second coat. But I am not a pro.
