How soon can I put 2K over fresh epoxy?
It's PPG "Shop-Line" which as I understand, replaced the Omni brand.
I just scuffed up the old Omni epoxy that's been on for nearly a year. I'm ready to put down a fresh coat of epoxy and I want to know how long it has to cure before I can put the 2k on. I find lots of info on the maximum window before you have to scuff and respray but nothing about the minimum time before I can coat with 2k.

For DP, you can coat it after an hour, and Im sure the ShopLine or Omni would be the same.

I figured I'd browbeat someone into committing.
Thanks CDJr...

Thanks P455. None of the P-sheets I found seemed to be concerned about the minimum curing time before topping with 2k so I guess it's not that critical. As a rule, I think I'd go with the advice above and wait one hour or more.
At any rate, I waited until the next day. Came out nice, I think.    It's come a long way from this!

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
