Watching Paint Dry for 2 days

Yesterday the primer was still too soft to sand and today is the same issue.  It seems winter is back in Seattle and once again getting the shop warm is a problem.  The primer has a huge temp range 50-90 degrees but the shop was 36 degrees last night... Not warm enough for a cure.

Yesterday I filled the small holes and flaws that were revealed by the primer. Today I cranked the heat to high and got the fans circulating the air.  Hopefully by tomorrow I'll be able to get to sanding.

We'll have to do some tweeking on the spray equipment too.  There is a tremendous amount of contaminants in the paint.  Flecks of material up to 1/4 " are everywhere! Hopefully with sanding the effects will be mitigated a bit.  It looks like a mess right now.  Also the spray pattern is very splattered.  The paint droplets are both tiny and large which makes a very uneven surface.  The large droplets are still soft and taking too long to dry.  The boat deck looks like a 1980's splatter paint nightmare. Its gonna take some serious elbow grease to get it back into shape.
