Ok I want to paint my tank, and even have the krylon fusion. Problem is its not gonna get up to 50F any time soon highest its gonna be is 38 tomorrow, And theres no way I can spray paint inside. So I'm wondering if I can do it in the garage with a space heater going just to bring the temp up to 50F or so, My only worry would be the vapor and the space heaters heating element mixing without good results.

It just needs to stay in the garage till it drys enough to handle then I can move indoors.
 
If you painting the back. Buy some paint and paint the back of your tank in the house. Or you can just spray your krylon paint and see what happens. I have used krylon in my garage to paint in the winter before and it worked great. However, I never used it to paint the back of my tank. I always buy paint and roll it on with mini rollers.
 
Don't have anywhere I can paint it. Can't do it upstairs cuz that'd be unacceptable to my grandparents. Can't do it in my room for obvious reasons and my "kitchen" area where I do most of my stuff has all the cat stuff, Food, Water, Litter etc. So I can't block them from that room. Leaving only the garage.
 
I dunno, sounds like krylon and a space heater can be a pretty exciting combo. of course if your GP's won't let you paint in the house I doubt they'll like a garage explosion.
wait until spring. it's only a few weeks away anyway.
 
Actually I found some other paint by krylon, Dual primer and paint in a can. It works at 40F so It should do the trick. Its gonna be 38F tomorrow so its my only chance this week to paint.
I want to get this done asap because I'm about to become very busy after my name change finishes and My Oscar is getting a little big for his 55.
