Tamiya thin cement and painting

at least an hour

cause then I'll sand it a bit if neccessary, prime, and then paint

I'll usually wait at least overnight, to give the welded plastic enough time to fully re-harden.

Ditto on overnight.

Stay safe.

It depends on the size of the glue joint and the size of the parts attached. Tiny part and small amount of cement used, at least a few hours.

Large surface area and big parts, (wings to fuselage, or additional plastic strips for increased joint strength,) minimum of overnight. A little poke with a hobby knife tip will tell how hard the cement joint is, if it's still a bit soft, then waiting until a full cure has been reached is needed for the best results. 

Add me to the list of those who let anything that's been glued to sit overnight before sanding/priming/painting. I finally figured out a long time ago, after too many nightmares of parts getting damaged by manipulating them too soon after gluing, that modelling is just like golfing - patience pays off and hurrying things leads to disaster. 

I wait two to three hours.

A few hours for small parts, overnight for long seams.   OTOH:  If sprue goo is involved, sometimes a week or more.  Rushing is a sure way to find that ghost seam after painting, especially if using lacquer.  

Hmmmm:

    Usually a full day. To make sure the sticky stuff has completely gassed out and the joint has hardened.

Just seems that so much of our build time is waiting for glue or paint to dry...

Ha ha, too true!!

That's what jobs are for - you glue something, go to work, and when you return it's ready to paint, or sand or whatever :-)
