krylon fusin curing

[wangster11235]

how long does it take for the krylon fusion spray paint to cure?
i spray painted my xp3 intake tubes, wait around 1 hour when they were dry. Then i made sure they were dry by going over them with a hair dryer. how long do i have to wait to put it back into the tank

personally i would wait till tomorrow, but i'm a super parranoid person.
what fish are in there? will anything get to messede up with out the filter for another hour or two?

1 convict, its a 120 that has been cycled and the filters still have water in them. but i was hoping to have the tank set up by today with all my fish from the 45 in there and stuff which is 7 frontosas

The one time I used it, I let it cure overnight. Didn't have any problems.

24 hrs. air dry for me too. Helps the fumes dissipate, even after the paint is dry to the touch. Dry and cured are 2 different things.

its been 18 hours, is that ok or should i wait the full 24?

At 18 hours, I think it would be fine.

Not to derail but since we are speaking of Krylon Fusion, if I put it on a DIY pvc overflow would I spray paint on each piece of pvc first or finish the whole thing and then spray it? Sorry to derail but its just a quick question.

spray the whole thing once it's done because the PVC cement wont stick proply to the paint.
