Hello:

This summer, will be having a new clapboard siding job on my house.
(Cedar siding will be coming pre-primed; oil)

Painting it will be two coats of Latex.

Question: How long between the first and second paint coat should one
wait ?
Amfew hours enough ?


If you go around the house and get back tot he starting point in a few
hours, it must be a very small house. I'd go with the minimum recommended
by the manufacturer, plus a few hours.

Or, follow the practice of my neighbor up the street. He primed the bars
spots on his house in 2005 and has not put the finish on yet.
