I guess my point was I wasn't painting in a booth nor a garage but outside a welding shop. I did get better results when I painted inside the shop. As far the humidity part, Painters have told me not to paint when it's really humid. By your comment, It's BS and by me painting when it was really humid wasn't an issue. :allgood:

Coupe if those so called "painters" told you not to wet the floor down (I could only guess) I will call BS. It is very common to wet the floor down here and we are near 100% humidity all summer long. Stick around you might pick up another pointer or two here and there...LOL!

Static electricity. The dryer the conditions, the more likelihood of dust being attacted to the panel. Humidity is your friend. Rick has said several times his best jobs are done on rainy days.
