How long does it take SkimStone to dry and cure?
Each coat of SkimStone takes between 30 minutes to 2 hours to dry, depending on the temperature and humidity. The final coat of SkimStone must be allowed to dry 8 hours prior to applying the first coat of sealer. Drying time for each coat of Protective Sealer also ranges from 30 minutes to 2 hours. Full hardness of the SkimStone surface is achieved after 7-10 days. Note: Using SkimStone in direct sunlight can accelerate the dry time, making it difficult to spread in a large area. Shading the area with tarps or scheduling the work to coincide with the shade is helpful.
