3D printed loco bodies

Apologies, that paint-workshop wasn't mine and was almost 40years ago, when as a student I had to work to accomplish the mandated work experience.   :D
Today my level of luxury is at level par with yours, but understanding why a garage would 'pre-heat' a full size lorry for 48hrs before spraying and keep it warm for 48hrs afterwards (which costs a small fortune), I don't expose models to temperature change until the paint is dry, as in fully dry.   ;)
Not sure whether your 20min is enough?  ???

Painting in summer helps, or not?

I haven't noticed an issue, but in fairness I keep spray cans indoors for 24 hours, its a trek round the garden to get into the garage, plus the door is double locked so if the weather is bad I tend to give it a miss anyway or I am soaked before I even get started.
My SciFi stuff always turned out OK, but then it was normally only undercoat.  I haven't sprayed any railway stuff yet, so will keep an eye out.
