For you painters out there, do you think with the nights getting into the 40's that its too cold to shoot paint ??? Im going with a single stage acrylic enamel and they have a reducer rated for 60 degrees. We are seeing 60 plus during the day but it gets colder at night. Do you think there will be a problem ?? Ive done the base/ clear coat once in cold weather and the clear had white spots in it after it dried......i think it was condensation tho. I might have to wait till spring, what do ya think ??

Wait until spring. You'll want a good cure and with the cooler weather that'll take a lot longer, and you'll likely have the same issues with the single stage as you did with the clear.sigpic

You should be fine, if not get one of those plug in heaters and warm the car up in the garage for an hour before painting. The white spots were probably condensation.

cure time isnt a problem, hell its been sitting since 03 ! lol. Im thinking if I can catch a sunny day, spray it around noon and let it sit out, is should cure up in a couple hours. I know it wont cure completely but enought to pull the paper/tape and roll it back in the garage before the day cools down.[sigpicComment

If you want to, I would suggest getting a dehumidifier and a heater, to do it right you need to drop keep the room dry with a low level humidity and heat it up to a constant 70 degrees. That will probably give you the best result considering the situation your in.Comment
