Default Quick Zaino question?

I'm going to apply some of friday and was wandering if you can go overboard in one day. I'm planning on doing about 3 layers of Z5 and 5 layers of Z2 in about a 8 hour period. Will I be hurting anything by doing this? There website said not to do over three coats while using ZFX is this true?

Thanks

Tom

That is too much and it will never cure. Depending on your paint condition, I would do the 3 coats of Z5 on Friday and then a single coat of Z2 the next morning. Your better off waiting to add the additional coats of Z2 later on.

Ok what if I did 3 coats of Z5 on Wednesday and then 2 Coats of Z2 on each thrusday and firday? I want the car looking badass by Firday afternoon?

thanks again

That would work fine, just don't apply more that 3 coats per day. 3,2,2 in 3 different days will work fine. :)
