Acrylic Epoxy Lacquer Need Info

i just recently finish my guitar using an acrylic epoxy lacquer (rattle can). the can doesn't say how long it will cure. anyone have info how much time i will wait before buffing it? the brand name of the paint is bosney. thanks in advance.

welcome kevlahnota..curing time has so many variables that it's impossible to say exactly...things like temperature and humidity for instance. one test is to smell it. when it doesn't smell like paint any more you're getting close. there's also the thumbnail test. press your thumbnail somewhere that a mark won't show..for instance where the neck plate will go if you have one or right on the edge of a pickup pocket where the ring will go..press fairly hard and if your thumbnail doesn't leave a mark it's probably ready.

good luck.
