Question
what should the temp be when you are painting a truck. i am not in a paint both just in my gargae i have a big heater in there but it just died so all i have now  is my wood stove and it is a really big shop  help

Answer
The wood stove is very dangerous, get the heater fixed. Even then, once you reach at least 70 to 75 degrees, turn off any thing with an open flame. Make sure you job is the same temp and not just the air. Once you turn on the exhaust fan and all your warm air gets sucked out, your truck will still be cold. Check the temp range on you reducers and activators, they make a big difference.
