Must have missed this thread - sorry to dig it up from page 4...
I need to do some rattle-can spraying on the Merc in the near future... I'm a bit reluctant to do it yet though because it's so feckin' cold out there! Getting that nasty white bloom on the paint would be a nightmare. Is it still OK to heat the paint / panels whilst outside or should I wait for the nicer weather? Bearing in mind it's the whole front end that'll need doing at first (matt black) then the rest of the car... I can do one panel at a time and I don't really care if it's an imperfect job (adds to the look
!) but I don't want flaky paint or bloom all over it (that ain't the look I want!)
Any advice welcome!
HoTWire - have you started your paintjob yet?
