How Long Does It Take for Spray Paint to Dry?

[DeGraham]

Small area touch-ups require approximately 10 hours to dry. For large area repainting, it needs to be done in a dust-free environment to prevent dust from getting into the paint or on the steel plate, which could result in poor paint adhesion or easy peeling. This process typically takes 2 to 5 days. Below is relevant information: 1. Spray Paint: Spray paint, also known as aerosol paint, usually consists of an aerosol can, aerosol valve, contents (paint), and propellant. It is paint that has been specially treated and filled under high pressure for easy spraying, also referred to as manual spray paint. 2. Precautions: If the car has just been painted, be careful not to let the newly painted areas come into contact with water or dust. It's best not to drive the car out on rainy days because the fresh paint is still delicate and may leave marks if exposed to rain, which can be unsightly and sometimes impossible to remove even with polishing. It's advisable to park the car in a garage at night.
