Is it really necessary to wait the recommended overnight before applying the thread epoxy?
Thanks

Not only would I wait, but I'd add another coat and wait another overnight!

Then pray. LOL

WHy not answer yourself, and conduct a test? That is what everyone shoudl do when using a new product, and if theyu did tha twould avoid MOST problems people run into.

I wait until I know hte CP has dried. It probably only takes an hour depending on the CP you use and how much you apply, but it's much safer to wait several hours.

Hi Tim.
Two hours between coats and at least overnight before applying finish and I'd say that would be for all cps not just Chromaseal. Do as Billy suggested and run some tests.
