Weather & Coating related question
We have a job scheduled for tomorrow, new-car prep w/ CQUK.
Temps couldn't be better (in the 60's & 70's, but high humidity) and have an opportunity to do it at the customers large 3 garage complex.
The minus, we're not working in our normal location and I'll have to pack gear (I'm not a mobile detailer).
My only concern is weather. New England weather has been changing by the minute.
I know CQUK states to roll the car into the sun for a few hours to cure, but Monday & Tue looks like it's going to be sunny and 80's, no clouds.
My plan is to start early at custy's house:
-roll car out, wheels (which are new)
- Iron-x
-Wash
-Dry
Pull car back into garage
- Clay
- Polish
- Erasure
- CQUK / DLUX on trim / Pinnacle Black Label Diamond Coating on Glass & Rims
No interior
Let car sit and inform customer to pull car out on Monday for direct sunlight. Does this sound like a plan???

The curing outside is not 100% needed on the coating to get a super durable great result. I've done a lot of cars in winter before I had curing lamps and they never had any issues sitting in my garage for a couple days.
They recommend curing within 4 hours of applying cquartz to make it cure up a little bit harder.

Thanks, the lower temps and high humidity helped flash the coating and came off pretty easy. Car came out great

The sun does help, but as stated, not 100% necessary. I have always topped CQUK with Reload to protect during curing process as a "just in case."
