Hey guys, I use a matte spray called Figure Flat http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&I=LXXA25&P=FR

It's winter and I don't have a good place to spray inside without bothering people with the smell. (Not to mention a lack of proper ventilation.)

I know I can't use the spray if it's too humid, but I'm not sure about how much temperature matters. It's quite dry out, but I was wondering if anyone knew if the cold should stop me from using it?

I can always just do a test model but figured I'd see if anyone else used it/something similar and could save me the trouble.

If no one's got an answer I'll do a test and share the results.

Danke Dakka.

Thanks Greasy. Was that using Figure Flat or another brand?

Yeah... all they had was don't store it too hot or cold and don't spray when it's too humid. *shrug*

So I finally got around to testing. Absolutely no problem with spraying and letting the figures dry in the cold. They look fine and are well protected.
