plasti-glossifier shines it up nice. Not like clear but not permanent either.

Hey guys first post here, been browsing for a while decided to make an account.

Here is my camaro, some may like it some may not. I did the whole body. To be completely honest it looks about 20x better in person but most of you will never see it in person.

Before



After

To answer this do not wait four hours, it's more along the lines of 10-20 minutes depending on climate.

This. Ive done a decent amount of plasti dipping, and id wait 10 mins max between coats. As soon as you can safely spray another coat without runs or sags, go for it.
