I just finished painting my D19, and I wondered how long until it is cold temperature resistant. It’s in a uninsulated garage that I have a propane furnace in, but I would like to shut it off when I’m not there as soon as the paint is temperature resistant. I used agco paint with thinner and hardener. The spec sheet says full cure in 14 days, but can it go below freezing before that?

yes, shouldn't be an issue (IMO)
i use AGCO a lot lately and if you keep it above freeze for few days to dry it should be fine. its going to take more then 14 days to full cure though, once you let it get that cold. i keep any extra paint that i have mixed with the hardener in the freezer to keep it from setting up I've had some paint in there for almost 8 months and it was just as thin as the day it went in.
