I agree. Heat her up beforehand.

When your ready to spray the car, make sure you fully warm up all the panels .To get all the moister out ,as it is going to sit over winter.if you dont ,and go a head and spray your car.Put out in the sun, months down the road you will end up with tiny micro blistering.good luck

He is right,,,you have to watch out for condensation on your panels.
