Paint Drying Time: Metal & Wood Surfaces in 5-10°C Garage Conditions, Overdiluted with Solvent

Hello, I have a problem. I painted a few things with one paint for metal and wood, I painted metal. Yesterday I was painting and today it is sticky in the garage it is about 5-10 degrees Celsius how much the paint can dry I added a little too much solvent but please write down how much the paint can dry in such conditions.

The colder the longer. On most paints, the lower application temperature is just 5 '. So don't be surprised. And the drying parameters are given for a temperature of at least 20'C.

oh, so I have to wait and do nothing and how much can it dry up because I added too much solvent a little and I have a low temperature in the garage

Then heat up this garage a bit and it'll dry up faster. And it will dry as much as it takes. At this temperature, a good few days ...

I have one more question, what would happen if I put the elements on the field and sat them with frost

With this frost, it's an inflection, but in general, the longer something dries, the more durable it is. Compare oilseed oil to those spray inventions - scratchable with your fingernail.

ok thanks for the answer

Balloon and buy me some oil paint now ...

Emolak is based on phthalic resins and not on Jurek air-drying oils.

Phthalic paint.
I painted it twice, it's a pity that I can't say the first and the last: /
Nitro, polyurethane drying time a few minutes and another layer can be fully cured for 24 hours.
However, when dealing with polyurethane, the varnish must dry well.

He paints the wood.

Hello,
Low temperature plus high air humidity significantly extend the drying time (in extreme cases it may even take several days). Therefore, it is important to follow the manufacturer's recommendations and paint in favorable conditions. Ideally, the temperature should be in the range of 20 +/- 2 degrees and the humidity should not exceed 55 +/- 5%. Another reason may be the wrong solvent and too quick application of successive layers one after another (the first one will not have time to dry and the second is already being applied). When we paint in conditions worse than the above, the drying time is longer and therefore the next layers must also be applied at longer intervals.

Counselor, applause for his reflexes, I suspect that this paint has already dried up for these ~ 14 months

What 14 months? They didn't teach at school to add?

Aaaargh, my fault, oh this New Year's Eve, I think he's still holding me ...

Personally, I would check the expiration date of the paint first. I usually don't check the date before painting, but when something doesn't dry, it turns out later that I used a very old paint. Things were able to dry in record for a few weeks.

Hello, I had to register on your electrode forum - to tell my colleague what to do to make the paint dry faster, on metal.
Below, I read the posts of my colleagues - but they were somehow unhelpful to solve the problem - I had the same problem - the oil paint did not want to dry on the metal casing of the ceiling lamp.
And I solved this problem by putting the case in the oven, set to 60 degrees - for fifteen minutes, turning on the air circulation every now and then.
The effect was that after half an hour, the lamp housings were dry and dried up - intuition worked, so do powder painters.

- as for solving the problem, it is relative because you destroyed the oven, probably no reasonable person will use it for food purposes after such an operation. Nevertheless, it is one of the right ways - to increase the temperature.
