Painting while it rains???

[LudicrousSpeed]

I know that in the paast, with laquer paints, you didn't want to paint when the humidity was high, due to blushing.

The only chance I will have this week to paint this car while it is still warm, it is supposed to rain for three days.

Will it hurt to paint using BC-CC? Chromabase stuff.......

rain drops on wet, curring paint makes for an interested pattern! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/yesnod.gif

Technically urethane paints cure faster in higher humidty.

Just slow oyur reducer down a touch over what you normally would,it will flash off faster from the humidity and some base colors will pull a slight blush.Slowing it down and not hosing it will cure any possible problems.Sometimes when I'm cutting in parts I'll just hose on one good coat of clear and I can watch it blush as it hits the part,but it goes right away as long as it doesn't flash off too quick.Same reason the lacquer would blush,it's naturally a fast flashing paint and the retarder or slower than normal thinner would leave it open long enough to let the moisture evaporate.
