Re: How cold is too cold to paint?

I just tried my painting method last night when it was about 25 degrees F outside and maybe 55 F in our garage (I warmed it up with an electric heater for a couple of hours before painting, then turned the heater off). With my construction lamps (two 100 watt lights on a stand), the painting area was plenty warm enough for any kind of painting. So if you have an unheated room in which to paint, get some work lamps and you can paint all year long. As it is, my garage is so dimly lit that I needed the lamps anyway.
