I have a Slash body that I am painting up. Nothing special, 2 colors with basic taping. However I ran out of my primary base color (white) and planned on picking some up tomorrow.
However there is a club race tomorrow night and I really wanted to show off my new body.
Question is, how long must I wait after painting before it's driveable without it cracking to pieces. Although it's a basic body I have worked very hard on the design and feel it will be nice.
Any help suggestions on how to speed up the curing process is greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

A hair dryer can be used to cure the paint faster, it still should cure for a few hours before use though.

+1. I try to let mine cure over night before I do anything with.

Ok, so like 4 or 5 hours would be enough? I will hit it with the hair dryer too but obviously not for 3 hours!!! Thanks for the help.

If you are using pactra spray cans, the paint that comes out of those dries insanely fast. Just stick it in front of a small room fan, and it will be dry in no time.

Yep, that's what I did and it worked out well. Got my body done, dry and to the track in time to woop some @$$ in MOD SC while lookin pretty good.

Thanks for all the help guys.
