INPUT ARTICLE: Article: The temperature must be over 40 °F (4 °C) for the paint to dry properly. Also, it's best to work in dry conditions. If you can't, you'll need to protect the area from rain with an awning or tarp so it doesn't get wet. If it's foggy or dewy, you also should wait to do the work. Painting in hot, humid weather and direct sunlight may also lead to problems. It can affect the drying process and the final look of the paint. Like any paint, elastomeric paint may settle a bit over time. You need to mix it with a paint stick so it has the same consistency throughout. Try not to create bubbles in the mixture. You may need to thin it a bit if you're spraying it on, but never add more than about 16 fluid ounces (470 ml) per pail. You will also need to strain the paint with a paint strainer for spray applications. Roll or brush the paint on. Paint in a "v" shape to get better coverage. Make sure you're not leaving any areas unpainted.If you're using a sprayer, go over the area in a consistent motion, making sure you cover all of it in an even coat. If you put polyurethane mesh (which is sold in rolls of 6 inches up to rolls of 4 feet) over the first coat it will prevent the elastomeric from cracking. Apply the paint at the thickness directed by the manufacturer. The coats for this paint are relatively thick, which is what fills in some cracks and provides weatherproofing. However, you must pay attention to the thickness of the paint to get these benefits. The best way to achieve the correct thickness is to follow the manufacturer's instructions for applying the paint.' You can buy machines that measure thickness, but they tend to be somewhat expensive if you're just doing 1 paint project. Wait for the first coat to dry, which should take about 4 to 6 hours. Once it does, apply the second coat in the same way you applied the first. Let it dry as well. Elastomeric paints don't do well in dark colors. They have a tendency to take on a chalky appearance, particularly when in direct sun. Because of this tendency, you won't find many dark colors in this type of paint. If you want a darker color, apply 2 coats of a conventional paint, such as 100% acrylic latex flat or satin-finish exterior paint, over the elastomeric paint.

SUMMARY: Wait for ideal conditions. Mix the paint with a stir stick. Work in small areas to apply the paint with a "V" shape. Create thick coats of paint. Apply the second coat after the first one dries. Apply a conventional paint on top if you want a darker color.
