How soon can DP paint coating and glass coating interact with water

Is there a 24 hour window etc where the product needs to "setup" or is it ready to rock after application and buff off

The curing is done pretty fast. I believe Nick early on said that it shouldn't be washed, but water could hit it after 24hrs.

All I kwow is I used Iraq on my headlights, 36 hrs later I caught a bird bomb on one and used UWW+ and didn't see any issue. If that helps hahaha

I found his response from the initial release thread:
