I'm sure the instructions say to put the second coat on WHILE IT'S STILL TACKY.

I think it is to help with the bonding.

But it's been six months since I did mine, so can't exactly remember.

your right Tosh, best to add when tacky.

would defo have a heater to dry it quicker in this weather or it could take days.

on the tin it says to apply second coat when first coat as become tack free (1-5 hours depending on conditions) but no longer than 24 hours!

ive got a new tin sat next to me here so im not guessing!  ;D
