Dana,
I've only used the SNJ powder, but would reccommend letting the primer dry a minimun of 24 hrs (preferably 48). One rule of thumb I learned from Model Railroader mag several years ago was that if there was still a paint smell present when you sniffed the model, then the paint wasn't cured yet.

Primer dry time
Posted by Bones-coa on Sunday, February 8, 2004 6:23 PM
Modelers, about how long should I wait for primer to dry before I can sand it? In this case, the primer was MM Med Grey.

And I know I'm not supposed to use primer with SNJ, but how long should the primer dry before shooting the SNJ?

Thanks.
