Thanks for the reply. I just figured that if I left it out in the sun it would cure quicker. I dont like kepping customers cars overnight but I might just wake up butt early to apply sealant and wait 8-12 hours so I will be applying a final wax almost at the end of the day.
If I was doing a customers car I would offer wax or sealant and explain them what needs to be done about keeping the car dry if they pick sealant. I would only do wax and sealant on special jobs

This will be a full correction (exterior, interior and engine) on a Cadillac CTS-V. This customer is a really high end customer, at least for me so I just wanted to add a coat of wax on top of sealant only to give them a wow factor and a big thank you.
If I dont have time to add the wax I am thinking of just doing it the week after the full correction since they are weekly customers.
Are there any sealants that have shorter curing times?
If you want to do a coat of sealant and wax I would use your choice of wax and then top it with Opt Opti-Seal. Opti-Seal will actually work its way below the wax leaving the 2 layers of protection.
Blackfire Wet Diamond has a shorter cure time if I'm not mistaken. It has Polycharger in it. I still think you have to wait 8 hours.
I just ordered some too but I dont think it will come in on time. It would of been like $30 bucks for 3 day shipping as well since I am on the west coast. I think I will add Wet Diamond once this sealant starts to run its course.

I have Poli-Seal but I dont think it will work like Opti-seal. However, I have heard that Poli-seal does have a faster curing time as well. Wonder if that is true.
