Question:

What is the waiting time between the crystal appearance phase and the black paint layer application phase, should we wait 24 hours?

Answer:

You just have to wait until the crystallization is complete. This can take 2 minutes at 35°, or 15 minutes at 20°. It is not necessary to wait longer. It is possible to move on to the next step after 24 hours, however, the crystallized surface must be well protected from humidity, by keeping the crystallized support in a perfectly dry environment, otherwise the crystals "melt".

Summary:

- Paint the aluminium background

- Drying 1h – Sanding with 800

- Apply the crystalizer and let evaporate at 30°C

- Apply a thin coat of black

- wipe immediately and before 2 min with the damp sponge.
