Answers: Wow!! Nothing like waiting until the ultimate moment!!! LOLOLOLOLOL
The application temperature should be not smaller quantity than 50 degrees ferenheit, or 15 celcius.
Check the weather forecast! A sweet frost will lift the paint up to that time it has a arbitrary to cure! You need at smallest two straight days of 50 degree temps, no rainfall, and no frost!!
If you live close to either the Missouri River, or other bodies of hose down, you may have moisture/frost issues, contained by the evening!
I would hurry, if I was you!! OR...explain to the MRS. that the frost at night would ONLY ruin adjectives your hard work, so you might as in good health wait til Spring!!
If she's similar to most Missouri women, she ain't gonna believe you, but....you can try!!
AAHHH Missouri....the "Show Me" State!! Good Luck, Fella!! If you do decide to paint, use a virtuous exterior concrete paint, and apply two coats!
If its never been painted formerly you need to etch the concrete first for the best adhesion. Chemical etchers can be found at home reorganization stores or a block and brick supply yard. There are some epoxy type paints that you put in a catalyst to, like 2 section epoxy glue, they are by far the strongest and longest long-term. The colder it is the longer the dry time but as long as it doesn't freeze you'll be OK
