Re: Looking for advice from experience painters

Sounds like you're doing great.

On the cab, when I'm saying tent. I'm really kinda just saying, to get it covered/enclosed. Tarp/moving blankets/plastic sheating. Not necessarily to build some sort of structure. ( not that you shouldn't if thats easier for you ) So you can use a small space heater to heat the smaller envelope of space.

For 2k products if you look at the TDS. They will usually have a spec for air dry & forced dry. For temperature and time .If your only able to heat your work shop up to air dry type temps. Then you need to keep them at that temp for the full duration of the curing time. But, if your able to get the parts up to forced dry temp. Using your turbo heater or heat lamps. The fully cured time is much shorter. And you technically do not need to keep them heated over night.

You just don't want to struggle to get your shop up to 60°F. Spray a 2k product. Then turn the lights and heat off, and walk away for the night.
