I read in an earlier post that the repairing of the tiles in space was impossible due to the cold.

Nothing is impossible!

Have you ever seen a lineman up a pole in a cocoon on a cold day?

There are ultrastrong adherents that can be prepared in a warm ready-box.

I assume that this warm ready box or cocoon you are describing has air inside it. Air can be heated. The astronaut would be working in a vacuum.

Yep. I've also seen them under a tent for three days reparing a phone line that I dug up with a backhoe. It was pretty (the phone line); every color wire you've ever imagined - it looked like a tree root when it came up.

Meanwhile, it was in an area that the telco had "posted" (no flags in the area) as having no lines... accidents do happen.
