For the last two days I've been prepping the Triumph's block and painting it. So far, both sides have been wire brushed, degreased, coated in POR-15 phosphoric acid metal prep stuff and painted.
Now, because I mucked up my times, I've got to wait until about 1 o'clock in the morning to turn off the propane heater that's keeping the garage warm enough for the stuff to cure.
Looks great though :)

What temp does it need to cure?

To set hard it needs the engine to run, but it'll dry out until it's not tacky so long as it's above 50 degrees fahrenheit (10 degrees C), or so it says on the tin.
Seeing as it's currently 4 degrees C (39.2 fahrenheit) at the height of the day here, I don't think it'd dry without the heater.
Could be wrong though...
