I just got done painting my car in garage , heated to 80 deg. 1230 am last night . I need to paint more parts that i based coated yesterday My question is how soon can I pull the car body out of the garage to cold 40 deg out side temp? IT has been only 8 hrs since clear coated and air dry at 70-80 deg temp heat in garage . Should I be concerned that temp change could cause a issue? Thanks Moparts for the help. CJ.

I don't think temp is your concern. It's debris, bugs, etc.getting into the paint while still tacky.
Facts are stubborn things.

I would leave it warm for at least 24 hours. I would like to see 70 degrees minimum.

It really doesn't matter whether you win or lose… as long as you look good doing it!

Update , so paint on car was dry to touch and had been drying at 80 deg for 11 hrs. Put paint mask plastic not regular plastic on car , sprayed out hood and fenders , . Waited for over spray to get vacumed out by my home made box fan exhaust and renoved plastic. No issues and car can stay inside and cure . Going to wait 36 hrs and cut and buff paint recommended by my paint supply store. Thanks .
