Re: Painting Over Water !!!!!!!!!!!
It gets humid as hell down here when the coastal breezes are coming up from the south. If it's too humid, I can't spray. I would have to have an air conditioned booth and I don't. Once it heats up in the summer time I can spray in the morning but it has to be before it gets too hot. Paints have information from the manufacture that informs a person on whats a go and what's a no-go and some brands are real picky.
I use the Ospho as a conversion coating pretty much like deuce roadster but I rinse it off before it dries so it's not like a primer. It will still convert the surface to a phosphate finish. I don't use etching primers. I still use zinc chromate primer now and then just to add some further corrosion protection in some places but it's mostly for aluminum parts and I use a different mix for the conversion coating on it so that it gets pickled with alodine.
It rains a lot down here in the cooler months so things have to be ready for the corrosion battle.
