| − | The temperature of the air and of the metal '''must''' be taken into account -- it must be high enough for the epoxy primer to properly cure. Note that in cold weather conditions, surface temperatures can be far lower than air temperatures. If the surface temperature drops below a particular value specified by the product manufacturer (usually around 60 degrees F) before it is fully cured, the epoxy may not properly cure even with later applications of heat. | + | The temperature of the air and of the metal '''must''' be taken into account -- it must be high enough for the epoxy primer to properly cure.

A non-contact thermometer can accurately determine if the surface to be sprayed is being maintained at an acceptable temperature. |
