Anyone know how long before I can blow the 2k top coat over my 2k primer? Using Valspar 2k primer. I can't find the one I have on the net so it may be obsolete.

I've always left if for weeks in the past as I took my time painting last time and did it over a few weeks.

Overnight minimum.
3days would be good.

I've blown them on wet on wet before to get it out real quick.

I am assuming you don't have a bake oven or infrared heater at your disposal either....

No infrared unfortunately. I thought I may have needed to leave it, but was hoping a few hours would be ok. Next Friday job to top coat then. Bugger, I really wanted to get it done today too. Is what it is. Thanks for replying Deuce.
