Ok guys, I know WDGPS 3.0 should cure for 12 hours but I applied the 2nd coat today but just 2 hours after, it had to stand a light rain for about 20 minutes.......
What do you guys think.... the 2nd coat was lost ?
It was looking great before the rain... I really think it was worth it... not so much now because of the rain...
Pics to come in a Show 'N Shine thread I'll create about the car, a a black 2009 Honda Civic, which I still plan to top with DP Max wax...

The thing is.... Will it affect the first coat? It's 2 days old....

Shouldnt effect it. 2 days is plenty of time to bond.

At least that.... i was already dreaming about the last touch with max wax... Oh boy.... Maybe i'll just leave it the way it's....

That is one reason I like using nubas if the weather is sketchy and the vehicle has to be outside. Sorry to hear of your loss.

I doubt it will be that big of a deal but if you want just apply another coat.

I would go ahead and put on the MaxWax. With that being the 2nd coat, I think you'll be fine.

Life goes on, lol. Being a true AGer I'm sure you will be adding a few coats of other products very soon. I like the wolfgang sealant but when I don't have time or weather is sketchy I reach for my WG sealant spritz. I really love that stuff.
