imgettingcloser Posted August 17, 2006 Report Share Posted August 17, 2006 Hey eveybody, Just a qucik question for all. How long do you wait to start spraying sealer coats after useing grain filler? I read in the Stewmac finishing book that you should wait 1 week or you could get a whiteish haze. I'm using all Belhen products and the filler says you can topcoat after 24 hours. So just wondering what the avg. wait time is. Thanks to everyone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been using the grainfiller I got from Reranch (oil based I think) and I topcoat in 24 hours with no issues. YMMV. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
