I read and reread, and reread the bottle and do not see any warnings about using it in too cool temp. Here we have heated all the way up to 27F today.

Woo, hoo - the students are dancing around in shorts and flip flops! Truly is much warmer than it has been lately. Anyway...

Can I take it outside to spray (becuase of needing to be a well ventilated area)?

I was told to wait til it was tacky to apply the other fabric, so, would spraying it outside, then bringing it in to wait, work? That is providing I can get a calm time with no wind.

How long will it take to get tacky?

You won't need to bring it inside and wait for it to get tacky. It will get tacky almost immediately and you'll need to get the next layer on before it dries. We're at exactly 27F also (go figure!) and it does feel amazingly warm after having a few weeks of frigid temperatures. I don't know if it's warm enough for the spray, but you can always try it and if it doesn't seem there is enough adhesive holding your layers together, you'll know it needs to be warmer. If you don't want to try that, is there a phone number on the can that you can call and ask?

The only stupid question is the one that isn't asked. Guess you are wiser then you realized! :thumbup:

while i wouldn't recommend that you spray the stuff directly up your nose, i don't think you'll suffer any drastic effects if you spray it indoors. i never take mine outside. the dog never starts running into walls and i don't do it any more often than usual.

if you're seriously worried about the fumes just wear a mask. a simple scarf tied old-west style will work just fine.

It might depend on the brand , but I thought my can ( at home so I can't check at the moment ) said warmer than like 65, but I could be wrong, wouldn't be the first time :roll:

It's cold here too and I have never used it outside. I'm not sure it would work. I just open my front door while spraying and haven't had any problems.

Can you spray in the garage? At least that way it won't get into the ventilation.

I used June Tailor outside when it was pretty cool and damp....it didn't stick very well at all. Used about a can on three 40 x 80 panels.

I wanted to spray a few days ago and it was too cold to go out side. My hubby didn't want me to spray inside because we have a wood furnace and didn't want the fumes pulled into the duct work and the air space that circulates around the fire box.

I'm just wondering if the flammability is as bad as the warning says.

Tiffany

Yeah, I didn't want to admit it but I always spray indoors too. I do wear a mask, but then I have to wear one when cleaning, going to stores, and when going to a place where there are a ton of people due to my allergies so I have one handy when it comes time to spray. I do open a window, even in winter, to help clear out any fumes and I've never noticed a problem. Of course, maybe the fumes are making me high and I just don't realize it. Hubby says I'm an odd duck. Do you think I can blame it on the basting spray?

adriansmom

I always spray indoors, window and door closed, without a mask and with a candle burning!! Guess I'm living dangerously!! I have never had a problem. I think if you directly inhaled a can or sprayed it into a flame, you might have a problem, but to just spray baste not so much. JMHO..take it or leave it. Good luck!

warning labels are so often overblown these days. they feed user hysteria to protect themselves from lawsuits.

why? because some people are stupid enough to pick up curling irons by the rod instead of the handle; smart enough to sue the manufacturer; and lucky enough to get juries who love giving somebody else's money to morons.

rat poison. harmful if swallowed. who knew? :hunf: :roll: :lol:
