I just painted my Bug with PPG Delfleet Essentials.

I've never used it before and I must say that I am very happy with how it went down and flowed out.

I've got the tech sheet telling nozzle sizes, temps, viscosity, etc, etc, etc.

But I can't find any specs on work-ability time. I know that if it needs a recoat, do it within 72 hours but what about buffing areas that I've sanded out runs?

I've been advised that this paint dries HARD and to do what you must do sooner rather than later. Any first hand knowledge??

Any advice for polishing this paint job, don't want to do it too early and bugger it because it is soft.

Thanks....

Dave
