spraying in the s**t weather



  Renault Clio 1.2
after frantically running around halfords getting 5 cans of paint match spray paint for my car (and asking twice to get it remixed because it wasnt exact) i finally got home, got dressed and went to my end of school ever prom. woke up this morning, with a large hangover but was excited to know that i could spray my car, which is all primered and ready to go. (just front and back bumper strips, side strips, door handles, and wing mirrors).

anyway, to cut a long story short, im now really p**sed off, because, the weather is c**p. but i have a garage, would anyone recommend doing thw spraying in my garage, there is limited space but is it worth it or should i wait till a sunny day??

any help on this matter would be great,

ps. would the damp foggy weather affect the painting

yes it would mate and to be honest halfords paint is w**k but its all in the prep work to get a good fin dont rush and it mite come out ok leave a while for each coat to dry our use hairdryer/heat gun to speed ot up and it will have to be falt sanded between costs as not useing a spray gun which makes life lot easier

yep you have to laquer about 4-5 coats on each strip....

tbh i'd wait for better weather...there's no point rushing it as it will probab ly turn out bad and you wont be happy with it

will be easier in your garage if you clear a bit of room.

just put some cardboard on the floor and spray them on there.

no wind and no fly's.

dont spray in rain because when it dries, spots of ur original colour will show (where the rain has been)

he aint spraying outside in the bad weather.

he said he has a garage with limited space.

a garage with limited space is 100x better for spraying than outside in the wind and hundreds of flies landing in your paint

yer good sh1t loads of laquer, just done my side strips, looking good so far, what does everyone think about painting the 1.6 16v badge (on the side strip) black to contrast the boreal grey strips?
