Couple coats every 10min and let dry over night. Dont try to rush dry it with a heat gun it will shrink on you..

Just mask off, this stuff is amazing if you checkout youtube channel DipYourCar you will see that its easier to screw up when you try to mask incredibly detailed by the dip drying to the tape.

The edges were pretty sharp. What I did was laydown the painters tape for an edge. One light coat, wait 20 minutes then one heavy coat then remove the tape. wait 30 minutes. Re-tape off the edge and do another light coat and heavy coat and remove immediately. Came out good. Actually now not seen in this pic I added a red pinstripe and the edge is perfect.

It is not at all necessary to tape of any part of the emblem. Once the spray is dry you can peel of the part you want (inside or outside) with no issues. The gap makes the break perfect.
