As we welcome the official first day of winter, preparing for how the seasonal weather can affect your projects is essential. At CGC, we're here to help you achieve flawless results, regardless of season. Cold temperatures and dry winter air can lead to challenges, but here are some tips to keep your project moving forward this season: ❄️ Protect your Materials: Store products like joint compound in a heated area to prevent freezing. ❄️ Drying Time Adjustment: Cold conditions slow drying, so plan for extended drying times between coats. ❄️ Control the Environment: Maintain temperatures of at least 10°C/50°F for materials, surfaces, and air. Use indirect-fired heaters to maintain heat while avoiding overexposure to moisture. Stay prepared this winter and build with confidence.
