Spray foam REALLY heats the shell - make sure it's back down to the right temp for your paint job!  Good Luck and please post pictures!!

I would bet that you'll only do the foaming.  It can take 8 hours to do a good job-including grinding and clean up.  Good Luck, TomC

I dont think I would want to do both in one day. With the heat generated by the sprayfoam and outgassing, I just would not be comfortable with it!   I am not an expert, just my opinion.   Jim

I'm having this done at a friends house thats on farmland (minus the farm animals haha).  Weather took a little bit of a nose dive right now, so painting may not get done.  The spray foam guys are setting up right now too, also waiting for the temperature to hit the 40s
