Week end break and curing time

When going to make an underwrpa/overwrap and thinking about not working on Saturday and Sunday, which is the best point to leave the job till Monday?
- Just after wraping underwrap thread, before coating with finish?
- After applying finish?

Can I leave first coat (this between underwrap and overwrap) for 3 days before wraping overwrap?. Is in this situation use CP or finish, if I have to wait?

Thanks again,


Daniel

I would coat it with what ever, finish is better. Keeps the dust off. If you want just scoff with a fine pad befor overwrapping
If you don't put a coating on, cover with a plastic wrap to keep the dust off

And, can I wait for two or three days before adding overwrap?. If I leave it without finish coating, then I must coat it on Monday and I cannot overwrap till tuesday. Is it like this???
