Well, if ya use any kind of open flame heater, remember--the new wet paint gives off fumes as it is drying, so any introduction of open flame heat in the building may cause a fire, until all fumes are gone. Then, if ya use kerosene in a burner, the oil will get on the wet finish between coats, and then ya get FISH-EYES big time! There are several ways to paint yer tractor. Wait until summer, or take it to a paint shop, or install a gas/ propane heater outside the door, in a little shed, insulate the outside of the shed , put an air intake in it with a filter, and have a small, slow speed fan to blow the heat into the shop, thru another filter. And another fan to expel the air and fumes at the other end of the paint room! In summer, i always tried to get the painting done before "bug-time"! The little buggers managed to find their way into the garage after dark, no matter how much i sealed it up! Good luck. Rusty Jones
