Temperatures for striping?

Question

we are running into some cooler night time temps over here, at what temp does stripping become effected? and, what can be done to work thru any problems that there may be, such as dwell longer etc? Or do temps in the 40's - 50's have no adverse effects on SH...?

thnks

temps ranging in the 50's have an effect on strippers and they take longer to work.

once below 50*, the strippers dont seem to be as effective.

Also note that the wood is tightening up in these lower temps and the amount of penetration diminishes as well. Sealers tend to thicken up a bit too and compound the penetration problems.
