ChargerMatt Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 Recently I just re-cleared my tail lights. How long should I wait before I polish them up? I've read that car clear you should wait 90 days. Is it the same for spray can clear? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Team Adam's Posted March 23, 2012 Share Posted March 23, 2012 Honestly I have no idea... thats a good question. I'll do some digging and see if I can come up with anything. I'd assume its going to be longer that typically sprayed parts b/c the atomization of the paint is lower and its not being baked. To be safe I'd hold off at least 90 days and I'll see what I can find out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is a 2 part clear and sets up nice a glossy with a solid finish.

Chewy Posted March 23, 2012 Share Posted March 23, 2012 Don't put any heat into it... You may cause the solvents which can take up to 90 days to release, to release too quickly causing the clear to bubble. It's not worth it IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChargerMatt Posted March 23, 2012 Author Share Posted March 23, 2012 Amazon.com: USC Spray Max 2k High Gloss Clearcoat Aerosol: Automotive best clear I have ever used from a spray can. It is a 2 part clear and sets up nice a glossy with a solid finish. I went over it with wet sand and some FMP and revive a week after spraying it It's already sprayed. Don't put any heat into it...

I'm not going to, aside from it sitting outside when it has to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

THE Mook Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 90 Days. If you can wait that long. Don't want to risk messing it up, or removing it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
