I was wondering if there is a outdoor temperature requirement to apply coatings like 22ple or gtechniq, would the 40's be OK?

Seems all products need atleast 60 degrees to make them effective.

I say no, others say yes. I've applied coatings in really cold and really hot temps before with no issues.

That being said, I prefer to apply coatings in at least 50+ temps just because its easier to work the products.

:iagree: I have a heated garage which is about 60 degrees. Most companies will tell you about 60 is best.

These guys will definitely know the required temperature ranges (ambient/panel)...
as well as humidity, dew points, air/wind speeds, etc.:
