I let it hang for 24 hours before I touched it. They said it is fully cured 5 days after spraying.

They also have a oven cured product but I didn't have access to an oven large enough so I went this route.
Thanks for the info Mike, I actually do have access to an oven and a spray booth where I work at the cabinet shop. I will have to check and see how hot the oven has to be though as we can only run ours up to about 180 or I risk setting the sprinkler system off I really like how you set it up as bolt together it seems to make more sense to me.
