Until it's dry if you want easiest removal. Right now, that might be a while in your area. Wait as long as you can. The worst that can happen is it will be slightly more difficult to remove, but still pretty easy.

I'll give it at least 2hrs till I detail the wheels and the leather inside. I wish I had the blue drops from zaino ZX something? but for now I had Z1,2,4, and for leather so I have to do w/what I have.

I just did mine with two coats of Z5. It dried in about 15 minutes with the accelerator drops. The instructions said to wait for about an hour for it to dry without the accelerator drops.
I would wait until it hazes up and wipes off easily, unsure how long that is without the drops.

You "had to check"? what's up w/that?? Like a man could be so curvy in 2-pc?
No worries, someone else did that and I just can't understand that? It's ME! 100% - Now.. Zilla can tell you how tall I am just in case you're wondering about that too? Ok guys, done with taking it off, did the wheels and finally did the last step w/the gloss! all I need is to do the tires so they won't look so dry.. Oh and I also detailed the wheel screws? with q-tips

My routine to do a total detail ( 1X each Spring and Fall) is:
1. Wash & dry thoroughly. *Get a cold one.
2. Use a random orbital to apply and remove Zaino polish. (Z5) *Get a cold one.
3. Use r.o. to apply wax (Z2 w/accelerator added). Do the entire car. *Get a cold one, wait at least 1/2 hour.
4. Use r.o. with buffer pad (I use at least 4) to remove wax. Follow with a microfibre cloth to remove any wax residue. *Cold one.
5. Repeat steps 3 & 4.
I do steps 1, 3 & 4 a couple of times in the summer as needed.
*Denotes optional activity. Delete or repeat as desired.
