For you experienced builders - how long before Duratex stops offgassing?
My cab was sprayed on Thurs. I'm still smelling fumes - pretty mild, but still present.
How long before the duratex stops offgassing and I'm fume-free? My wife is pretty chemical-sensitive, so it's pretty important.
Thanks!

If God had meant for us to use flatwound strings he'd have stopped our hearing at 500 Hz.

Leave it outdoors in the summer sun and it's fully cooked in two days. In winter I can't say.

Put a fan on it and it will cure much quicker if the sun is not available. Phil

It cures faster with heat and without humidity.pwfirst wrote:Put a fan on it and it will cure much quicker if the sun is not available. Phil
