Is there a cold temperature limit to painting (oil Based). It was
recently -4C here and perfectly dry and I am about to start painting
outside, will the paint cure properly?


There shouldn't be a problem if there is no moisture on the work. If
there is the slightest amount frozen in, your paint will come off in a
few months if not sooner.


I was painting guttering!.......ran a blow tourch over just before painting
to eliminate any dampness, especially arond joints!



Why on earth are you in such an hurry?



It has to be finnished by Tuesday!
