Hey Jon, or anyone who has tried this stuff, how long does it take to cure?

It takes about 1/2-1 hour to cure to the point that it is dry to the touch and teh car can be put back together. This dry time is affected by the weather, if its cold or very humid it can take up to double the dry time. I suggest 2 coats as opposed to one, you get a better adhesion and finish (you can do the second coat as soon as 20min after the first).

This isn't the end of the curing however. Over the next 12-48 hours (again weather affects exact times) it continues to cure. The molecular bond between the product and surface applied to becomes stronger and stronger. This means that you won't really notice any deadening properties until its fully cured. Once fully cured though you will be amazed.

BTW, I am going to try and get some new videos of it up tonight some time.
