How ling does the whole process (masking, application, drying) take? I'm down to do it next Saturday, but I have a wedding to go to around 7-8 pm. If we can be done before then next Saturday will be good (July 23rd). We can do fangs + valence or try experimenting with the roof.
It only took me and Solid Katfish around 45 mins to do the rear valence. That included taping the area off and applying 3 coats. We did however have a giant shop fan blowing on the car between layers so that probably sped things up quite a bit
