Hello All,
Based on your recommendations I will apply either BFWD All Finish Paint Protection or Four Star Ultimate Paint Protection topped with Collinite 915 on a GMC Denali.

I need to know how long I need to wait before I can top either sealant with 915.

Secondly, If I were to use a hybrid wax, could I apply sooner than 915?

Thank you to all who choose to respond.

I'd feel safe after 12 hours. :dblthumb2:

Bobby,
Thanks for putting forth the effort to reply. While searching the web, I came accross a post by Todd Helme regarding BFWD stating (and this is my interpretation because I could not find the link again to post it here) it's roughly 80% cured by the time it hazes. He stated it was desighned to cure quickly. However, cold temps and humidity ( he didn't provide any temps or humidity %s) could slow it to 12-24 hours.
I like the sound of what he wrote. It will make me more confident when applying a wax to the sealant.
