What Else To Know About Exterior Painting Temperature
It doesn’t make much of a difference what the temperature you paint in is. Today’s paints dry quickly and well. Plus, you can find paint made specifically for certain temperatures.
If you aren’t sure about the temperature, you can do what we do and use a temperature gun. In Prescott, the weather is pretty perfect for painting year-round. All you really need is dry weather and for it to not be too hot.
How We Paint House Exteriors In Different Temperatures
During the spring and summer months, we work ahead of the sun. We’ll start early in the morning before it gets too hot and finish painting before the sun sets. In the wintertime, we’ll start on the coldest side first so it has more time to dry.
Painting House Exteriors During Monsoon Season
Rain and paint don’t mix very well. That’s why if it rains (or is going to) we paint the sheltered areas. This way you get some work done without worrying about the rain ruining it. Another option is for us to stop before the rain. This gives the paint time to dry.
We may also not work. This is to protect your time and investment.
