I will just leave this here


 
I am tired of waiting. Prolonged rain and very high humidity has stalled my rehabbing. I need to at least spray a couple end caps for my current rehab but humidity has been minimum 70% for days now. It is supposed to dip just below 65% this afternoon and I am going to give it a go. Am I going to be sorry? I usually won't spray paint unless levels are below 60%.
For a small project why not do it in your basement? If the AC is on and you're running a dehumidifier it should be OK. Don't tell anyone but if I need to hit a couple small pieces with a rattle can it's what I do :D
 
My basement is finished. Not super nice, but not bare either. If it was bare cement, I wouldn't hesitate. But, I don't think a dusting of black spray paint is something I want to introduce down there. ☹️


EDIT: Wow, I just looked and it seems Rustoleum HH Ultra can be sprayed up to 85% humidity.

PRODUCT APPLICATION (cont.)
APPLICATION
Use outdoors or in a well-ventilated area such as an open
garage. Use when temperature is between 50ºF (10ºC) and
90ºF (32ºC) and humidity is below 85% to ensure proper
drying. Priming is not recommended. Do not use on metal
directly exposed to open flame or in direct contact with food,
such as a grill grate. Avoid application in very windy and
dusty conditions.
 
I was pretty happy to get full asking price for the Q I listed just shy of two weeks ago! Nice older (than me) guy that was pretty stoked to get a Q! I felt bad afterward thinking that I should have thrown him a 10er back to buy him a thermometer for it, but I sounded like he was planning on it anyways. I held firm to my price just to cover the $145 photo speeding ticket I got while picking up the 'free' grill....

I was beginning to worry with no 'bites' for almost two weeks.... but he contacted me last night and picked it up this morning. I figured I had priced it 'reasonably' based on what was showing on CL/FBM/OU --- most of them weren't even cleaned - some missing tables - one missing the lid handle....

I'm gonna leave the ad up for a while and see how long it takes for another 'interest' response out of curiosity.
I was happily surprised to get another inquiry on the grill tonight - wanted to pick it up tomorrow ---- two weeks to actually sell it - another week to get another response..... It just goes to show that you just need to be patient and someone WILL buy it if you price it right.
