Had to have a 2018 VW repainted because of an accident. The shop has done painting for other vehicles of mine. One vehicle spiderwebbed after a bit and he said it was because I didn't let it gas for 120 days before sealing it. (He did repaint it no charge).
I have no garage and this VW is a daily drive. Do I have to let it gas for 120, or can I seal it now after 60 days?
My patience are shot waiting.
You can use Meguiar’s M305, anytime youQuote:

On the other hand:
Meguiar’s M305 is more than a glaze.
It does provide paint protection.

”Body shop safe glaze with wax protection?
Only from Meguiars!
Meguiars 305 Ultra Finishing Durable Glaze
is the first step in creating a brilliant, high
gloss shine after wet-sanding, cutting, and
buffing a new paint job. Formulated using a
complex blend of oils, super fine abrasives
and durable wax protection, Meguiars 305
Ultra Finishing Durable Glaze increases gloss
and adds protection to fresh paint jobs.
Meguiars 305 Ultra Finishing Durable Glaze is
breathable and paintable, and its silicone-free
formula makes it body-shop safe.
Body shops typically use a glaze after compound-
ing and polishing a new paint job to really make
the paint POP, so when the customer picks up the
vehicle, they’re blown away by their investment to
get their vehicle repainted (or repaired). The only
issue with a glaze is they don’t offer any wax pro-
tection, until now!
Meguiars M305 Ultra Finishing Durable Glaze is
the only body-shop safe glaze formulated with
real wax protection. This means your freshly
painted car will not only leave the body shop
looking great, but it will be protected as well!
Meguiars M305 Ultra Finishing Durable Glaze
is breathable and paintable, and its silicone-free
formula makes it body-shop safe. Use Meguiars
M305 Ultra Finishing Durable Glaze by hand or
machine.
Meguiars M305 Ultra Finishing Durable Glaze
offers light paint correction when used with a
polishing pad on a dual action or rotary polisher.
Use Meguiars M305 Ultra Finishing Durable Glaze
to remove light holograms and shallow swirl marks
on a freshly painted vehicle.
You can also use Meguiars M305 Ultra Finishing
Durable Glaze on cured finishes (think new car
that you just purchased) to enhance gloss before
you apply a dedicated wax or sealant.”

You can use something like Meguiar’s M305 or Optimum Car Wax
So how does this concept work? Gasses can get out, but yet contaminants can't penetrate? Interesting concept I'm just not familiar with the logic. Thanks for sharing.
Telling someone 120 days is called,
Bubba-Proofing
Usually, 30 days is a good enough "window of time" for any solvents and other ingredients to outgas before sealing the surface.
I must have 3-4 in-depth articles on this topic since 2004. Go to Google and type in

And I'm sure something will pop up here on AGO or MOL

Much appreciated everybody, thank you for taking the time to respond.
