Cellulose paint, problems with blooming

I have been having trouble with the black cellulose paint I am
painting my Range Rover with blooming. I am using antibloom thinners.
What is the highest safe relative humidity to be spraying celly paint
in a garage? Are there any ways to prevent blooming or to lower the
humidity other than waiting for a perfectlty hot, dry & sunny day?
Sorry if this is a little off topic but there seem to be some
experienced painters who read this group I remember from previous
posts.
Thanks,
Fergus

Let it dry off and try cutting back with a mild compound, you could find that
by doing so you'll polish out the bloom if it's not too bad.

It's more temperature than humidity - you can paint at 70%RH without
blooming so long as the temp is 20 deg or more. Heat thr garage.
