What temperatures have you used this product in? It's been hot here lately (90's) and only around 75 in the
morning. Even if the vehicle is out of the sun, how hot is too hot?

90s are fine, but the hotter it is, the faster it will flash...and the faster you will have to move.

I applied it yesterday (Actually OG but application is very similar) and it was 90. It flashes quicker in hotter temps. Othewise I had no issues.

I just did my first application last week with temps around 85-88 in my garage. The car was NOT in the sun. I can't imagine doing the work in the sun in those temps. I only had about 1 minute of working time per application section before the coating flashed and got grabby. I would do it in a garage first thing in the morning. Start off in 1 square foot sections and move up from their when you get comfortable with it.

I think it was in the 80's when I applied Opti-Guard. I did it in the evening after the driveway was in full shade.
