    What is it that you do at your job?

    I am a Credit Analyst for Fruit of the Loom, Inc. Do you know most of my job consists of tracking shipments and seeing if they were received, mishandled, and to file claims, or credit the customer if it was a DC error?

    Do you think he was talking to DVS? Or was he referring to himself? LOL

    Can I tell you all it reminds me of something that happened last night?

    We were at the nursing home and one of the ladies motioned me over to talk to her. I think she thought she knew me. Anyway, while I was standing there, she passed gas....Do you know how hard it is to keep a straight face when you are trying to be friendly? God love her, I still talked to her, but OH MY GOODNESS, I wanted to vomit!!

    New topic? If I need to spray paint PVC piping, can I do it outside over the snow, or will that be too cold for the paint to stick to the plastic?

    would it be a great Idea to.. store the paint and pvc inside, then when you are ready to go outside and spraypaint it, then let it dry inside?

    Would letting it dry in a chilly garage be okay? Or should I bring it all the way inside?

    is your garage colder than the recommended bonding temperature? if not, would you rather leave it there?

    Substrate adhesion is not a function of temperature but rather a function surface tension. Wht is in question is the solvents contained in the paint. While Acetone or Xylol will be fine to dry outside Primary alcohols will not be. The increased temperature of an indoor cure will speed up the drying process, but you will have solvent vapor fumes in the house. The will eventually disappate but if you are going to do this crack a window on the low side as solvent vapor fumes seetle not rise.

    Did I answer your question?

    Crap it says 50-90 degrees F. It's in the 30's here. I don't have a thermometer in my garage, think there is an app for that? LMAO

    can you put it in the garage for like 10 min, let the smell dilute, then put it into a room that is hardly used?

    Is this possibly the answer, but a question at the same time?

    How the hell would I know that?

    MikeyD1280 Posts: 5,257
    would you believe there there would be a label on the can if so?

    most of us contractors hate low voc, did you know that?

    if it is, then the odor will be less potent... did you know that?
