The full cure time for TotalBoat TotalBilge is 3-7 days, depending on any number of factors that can influence the paint's dry time. Under normal application and drying conditions, the dry time to touch is 1.5-6 hours, and can be recoated 8-16 hours, depending on temperature.
The cure time for any air-dry coating is dependent on a number of factors, including the wet film thickness at which it was applied, the ambient temperature, humidity, if there is any air flow, if the paint was thinned or not, and if it was in the sun or in the shade. Warmer temperatures, with better air flow and lower humidity, will generally help an air-dry paint cure faster than cooler, damp conditions with little moving air.
