Default painting in the winter?

So I'm gonna repaint my dash a gloss silver. The problem is that its gets really cold here, and my garage is about 20-30 degrees, where I would take the dash out, and paint.



I have a torpedo style heater that I could use to keep the garage warm... but it would suck to have it on the entire time for it to dry.



Thoughts? Will painting in cold temps really mess it up?

yes more than likely it will cause bubbles. A SLIM CHANCE if you do real light layers it may not

+ bonus danger points for using a heater where you use volatile chemicals
