My opinion. Wait until the weather allows you to spray paint again.
Of what i've heard, brush paint will not give you the same result as spray paint.

Do not even think about brush painting with any kind of paint.Try to find a relative or friend's house you can paint in or wait for weather to warm up. If you have other kits get them ready for paint in warmer weather.

It's not that cold. Just do what I do.I just move my car out of the garage and I spray in the garage with the garage door open.
