I like to paint outside as I can see so much better. But yes, you run the risk of dust, bugs, or other hazards. You don't want to paint in extreme heat, that's sure. The paint will dry too fast and you can't get a shine. They do make slower drying thinners for hot weather. In the summer I'd paint first thing in the morning.

But if the paint is set up at all if you leave the bugs alone until the paint is completely dry they will wash off and hardly leave a mark.

Always have. But yeah, I always have a few boo boos too. New paint is pretty soft the first week or two.
