Filler and weather moisture question

This coming Wednesday I planned on doing some filler work over freshly sprayed SPI epoxy applied on Monday. Weather for the rest of this week, and for the next 10 days, isn't looking to good with chances of rain every day, which means higher moisture in the air.

If I can move forward with filler work, how can I dry out any moisture that may introduce itself to the filler before more primer?

Thank you,

Got an infrared curing lamp? If the answer is no, the response is why not?!

Dang Lizer, I don't know what to say. You've cornered me with no way out, lol

Do you think the infrared curing lamp would work to dry out the filler of any moisture if I use it, say, for 12 to 24 hours straight right before spray painting?

Keep it in a heated space, the warmer the better. :)

I have the new heater for the garage but, I was trying to limit its usage to keep my electrical bill down. I'll keep the garage at 65 and crank it up to 70ish when the humidity is high. Weather is going to suck out here for the next month with rain.

Yes absolutely, except 30-60 min is probably all that’s needed.
