ok the damn posting to many messages just erased a huge paragraph so heres the basic ? 78% is too high to paint right???

 

yeah it i unlessit is really hot outsede

 

nope it actualy feels good for tx summer 78 looks like im going to hold off...and it also looks like the forum is going to make me hold off on posting maybe i need to type slower and get a slower connection because its been a min and a half since my last most and it still wont let me post

 

no 78% is not to high to paint it just mneans your paint will take forever to dry

But if you have a safe place to paint and a old fan you can paint it and se tthe fan int eh room with you as long as it wont blow stuff in to your paint it will help the dry time

Also think of this the slower the cure tiem on the paint most of the time the better it will stick

but watch out for flying things in teh wind also paint thin coats and go back and repaint them

 

well im painting now the passenger side dash i guess you would call it. the peice with the monte carlo thing on it.
i took my whole dash apart it was pretty cool and pretty easy

 

lol i hear it is easy to do i will be finding out soon i orderd my guges tonight YEAH!!!

But if i dont like them I will blame in on TVM.

 

hey i think the fan is going to help reduce a coat of paint i dont know why i didnt think of that last time but for some reason the diff humidity and fan helped it coat better and i let it dry twice as long inbetween coats

 

when i worked in thebod shop hehad made a box that was kind of like a sand blast cabint and hooked upa shop vac to i tocreat a down draft booth but small enough to use for small parts was a neat i dea and you could do the same hing with a cardbord box all you need is a vent on both ends and a hook up for your shop vac, just use cheese cloth for the filter on teh top of it so you keep the air comming in clean as you can

 

In high humidity situations, it is best to do more, lighter coats. And so long as you color sand between coats, dust/dirt and debris shouldn't be an issue.

 

its done here we go
