Question

Yup dryin them in the summer can be a pain done wrong. I seal and let drip out side. then when no more drips show I hang them by the furnace which heats my hot water. Once dry I prime and then move them back by furnace after hangin a half hr. Then I repeat the process with each coat of paint. Some paints don't do well with the evenin dew or the constant rains like we have again this yr.Moisture between coats of paint or primer cause pealing and bubbles when the sun hits them .
i'm still playin with experiments while fishing so this is how I've dealt with dryin problems.A dehumidifier sure helps in a basement also.Especially one thats hasn't received any paint to help seal out moisture. Hope this helps. Ron
