Well heres a quickie I`m in a deillemma over.



Its gonna be sunny 93 degrees today and I wanna finish detailing my car. However, the forecast shows that it`s gonna rain tomorrow. Is it ill-advised for me to detail today. I did plan on "EX-P-ing" All the panels I fiinish after polsihing.

BTW, My car is`nt garaged.

I`d do it, and hurry up so the EX-P has time to cure before the rain! Seriously, if you try to time the weather you will never get your car detailed.

About how long will my EX-P need to cure properly, Setec?

Frustrating, I know. I hate to put all that work into something and then it not even be noticed. But, any added protection you can add will be beneficial.

Most sealants have a recommended cure time of 12-24 hours in a nice dry environment, but hey, we don`t all have a climate controlled garage to detail in, you do the best you can when the car lives outside.

Do it, I`ve detailed when it rained the same day.
