I haven't sprayed anything with paint in the better part of a year, and before that - probably 20+ years. As such, I can use a check on this. There are too many sources that disagree with this online, so, I thought I'd try to gather this up in one place.

Does anyone know what the following should be for spraying paints (and any variations thereof for varnishes):

Spray Paint Temperature: ~50 degrees F to 77 F
Varnish Temperature (Munitorum): ~45 F to _____
Wind: Less than ~10 mph
Humidity: ~30% - 70% (definitely no more than 70)

I seem to recall Temperature is something like 50-75 F, Wind is up to maybe 8 mph, and Humidity is 30-70% or something (not sure I ever went by this at all). Let me know if there is anything else I'm forgetting.


EDIT: I might fill this in over time as I remember more of this.
