I just bought a new, outside rearview mirror for my car but I need to spray-paint the mirror before I bolt it to the car door.
The directions on the spray cans of Dupli-Color Perfect Match paint say to allow "sufficient" time for the paint to dry between coats.
How many minutes/hours of dry-time should I allow between:
* each coat of Scratch Filler Primer
* the last coat of the primer and the first coat of the color paint
* each coat of the color paint
* the last coat of the color coat and the first coat of the clear coat
* each coat of the clear coat
* the last coat of the clear coat and installation.
Thanks,
What is the type of paint and the weather? Lacquer on a hot sunny day
will dry almost instantly and enamel on a cold, damp dreary day may
take over night.
