Clear coat question

[AMT Pacemakers]

I've used TS 13 over MM enamels that have dried for a couple of years with no problem. But never on a fresh enamel paint job. In the best guess possible how long should I let the enamel dry before clear with TS13?

Thanks

At least until you can't smell the enamel, probably 2 weeks minimum. 

This is one of the times a "spoon test" WILL give you useful information.

The "smell test" is a good indicator. Two week would be a MINIMUM and I'd rather wait a month.

That's assuming you sprayed it out of the can. If you cut it with lacquer thinner and airbrushed it, one week should be plenty. I've clear-coated such as soon as 48 hours.

Sprayed from the airbrush, thinned with DTR 604 enamel reducer. I sorta figured the smell test would work, will check it in two weeks.Or, if I get in a hurry I use Future

Thanks
