Overcoating
May take place as soon as the previous coat has gelled and while still tacky. Maximum overcoating time 72 hours at 68°F (20°C). Once the maximum overcoating time has been reached, the adhesion values attained by any subsequent coat will reduce dramatically. It is important to observe maximum overcoating times and note these will vary with climatic conditions. Any further application of coating at this juncture should be treated as a repair, with the surface flashed over to provide a physical key. Styrene cannot be used to reactivate the surface and may in some cases impair adhesion.
