How Long Does It Take for Car Paint to Fully Dry?

[DiReagan]

Generally, after a car is painted, it can dry in two days during the summer when temperatures are higher. In winter, the drying time depends on the temperature and can take up to four to seven days. If baking is applied, it only takes about two hours. Below are some related details: 1. Small Areas: Small area painting can dry in half a day, while a full car paint job requires two days. 2. Precautions: If the car has just been painted, avoid exposing the newly painted areas to water and dust. It's best not to drive the car in the rain shortly after painting, as the fresh paint is still delicate and can be marked by rain, some of which may not be removable by polishing. It's advisable to park the car in a garage overnight.
