My garage gets into the low fifties during the afternoon.

I have some floor pans I would like to get done and I am spraying PPG Concept.

Do you think I would be ok spraying. The parts are mostly hidden and I can let them set for several days before moving them. I am mostly interested in getting them in color and perfection is not critical. I do want them to harden up real good as they will be in a high wear area.

Has anyone had any problems spraying the concept at these temps?

Thanks

If the low 50s is your high temp I'd say it's going to be too cold for the paint to harden properly. If the temperature will stay at 50 or higher during the curing process then you can probably get away with spraying and curing properly. I'd probably give it a couple days to harden properly at this temp.
