Room Temperature for Airbrush Spraying

If there is any way to create yourself an area/room that can be warmed up to at least 50 degrees you'd be better off. Use some tarps to make a tent that you can warm with a small space heater. If you can't keep your paint and model in the warmth of the house to the last possible moment. The other factor of the process is the compressor itself. Being in a cold damp room it will be pumping out cold damp air. This can be an issue. Here's where a CO2 setup excels.

What is the reason you can't spray indoors? Odor? SWMBO?

Warm the paint indoors and then go out in the garage and paint and bring it back indoors somewhere to cure. I have done that and with flat paints it wasn't a problem. With gloss colors I wouldn't recommend it though.

Get a candle melter or coffee cup warmer. Either should help, plug it in out where your painting and use it to warm the paint.   The paint should be a better spraying temp.  I paid less then 10 for mine.

I used to just put the bottle of paint and the airbrush under a 100 watt lightbulb for a while and then paint when I used to paint in the cold garage. You could also use a hair dryer.
