What is the cure period for Dr. Colorchip when using a coating?

I know sealant/wax is a week, would a coating be the same?

great question.. and I don't know the answer but I used dr colorchip on my hood, then coated it two days later

never had any issues with the dr colorchip under there for over 2 yrs.

come to think of it. I even polished the coating off of that hood with 4500 a couple months ago and it was still good. you can see where I did the touch up paint (first time using it) but it looks better than before the touch up paint

if I were to do touch up again I would let it sit for a day then do another coat then repeat several times to actually fill the space with paint instead of just the metal with paint (leaving that tiny crater there)

Unfortunately I have the same tendencies.

This is for a 01 porshe 911 C4 cab bought new with 5k on the clock. I just did an inspection, he said he wants the full Polish Angel treatment. We will see when he gets the estimate. I just need to decide on Viking Coat or Cosmic.

I will also give an estimate with "standard" products.

I have time to figure the touch up thing out. I am going to Trinidad for 3 weeks so it be scheduled mid to late April.

Yeah my wife and I are missionaries and we are going to secure our permits. We spent a year there between 2013-2014. It is actually what got me on AG and then here. My car was sitting outside uncovered for a year and I knew it would need some proper attention. I am too cheap and don't trust anyone to do things right, so I research and learn to do them myself. Now I find others that will pay me to do what they won't for supplemental income.
