Oil Wash Drying Time

oil wash drying tim e depends on the concentration. I usually add about a dot to a 1/4 cup of turpenoid, so it dries quickly. Air circulation is your best bet.

Air temperature and humidity will also effect drying time. Generally the warmer and dryer the air, the more rapidly that the wash will dry. I am finding that my oil washes are ready for clean up sooner in the dry heat of Arizona (even in the A/C) than they did previously in coastal Southern California (even in summer).

Thanks for your help.  

Is an oil wash dry when it doesn't smudge when touched?

Also, is it ok to use Mr. Super Clear over the oil wash?

If you can't smell any product then it's dry or extremely close to dry. Get you nose right up there and see if you can smell anything. If it's dry to the touch and you can't smell anything, you're good to go. I always wait 24 hrs and where I live I am always in good shape.

You can clear it with just about anything safely, the base paint is where you may have an issue with certain clears.
