Default Why 24 hours between coats of Zaino?

If I'm reading the instructions and Tips & Tricks right, they say wait 24 hours between coats of Z5 or Z2. What is the reason for this waiting period :confused:

Cruzer, it lets the product fully cure, the new Zaino additive gives you instant cure time, you can apply 3 coats in a day, it should be for sale to the public by late Sept.

WOW! three coats in a day? That's going to make the coat counts increase BIGTIME!

It does not hurt anything if you do not wait, the polish just will not layer unless the last coat is cured. When the outside temp is above 70 degrees it speeds up the curing to 6 to 7 hours :p:

Not really, by my understanding, after you remove the polish it does not matter as long as it is warm outside, you have to remember, Zaino loves heat, wax does not :eek:
