    Is there a temperature requirement to apply a coating?

    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.

    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.:
