- Fri Jun 07, 2013 5:05 am #332598 what would you say is the ideal wait for the paint to dry between coats before sanding,

I was thinking a coat a day then sand it the next morning ?? i've read up on so many DIY threads but not really sure about this though.

It all depends on the type of paint, how thick you lay it down, the humidity & temperature...

There should be approximate dry times in the instructions on the paint, as well as re-coat windows.

Race cars are like boats I guess. Time to bust out another thousand.
