Well with this cold weather and all the flu about, painting seems to be on the back-burner. Garage space has been cleared ready for a painting station, but it will have to warm up or wait till spring 😁

Gray I can relate to this, I was spraying my porsche build in the sub zero temps last weekend in the garden, with nothing but a cardboard box as an improvised spray booth! My wife thinks I'm mad.
