ZFX application help
Been away from the forum several months and find that the ZFX is now available and sounds very impressive & exciting. I have a few questions and need your help-
With the ZFX mix, now I can apply Z2 or Z5 in any temperature and have it dry quickly? What is the drying say at around 50 degree F, outside?
I only have 1 coat of Z2 on because it took a long time to dry. And especially during this winter season is impossible. It'll be awsome if the ZFX can drastically cut down drying time in this temperature.
Thanks in advance.

Re: ZFX application help (zephyr9)
I did 3 coats of Z2 w/ ZFX when it was 42F in my garage. I let it dry in 20 mins and it was fine. You need to use it very thin. I was able to do 3 coats on my Z06 and 3 more on my 540 with 1oz back in Dec. Last week I did 3 coats on my brothers X5 and 2 more on my Z06 with 1oz.

In humid conditions you have to apply Zaino very thin, I can get Z-2 or Z-5 to dry while it's raining out in 10-15 minutes, with ZFX it will dry at least that fast or faster, I can usually start removing ZFX when I finish the last panel on the Vette.
