I'm putting a coating on a friend's car. I don't have reload. Will the finish be ok sitting in the garage overnight. Or should I wait to get some reload. I also don't have eraser. I was gonna make up my own concoction. Some ipa with a little megs express wash.
 
You only need the Reload if the car has a chance of getting wet. If it is garaged then you will be OK without it.

I applied CQ UK two weeks ago and used an IPA wipedown instead of eraser.
 
can someone explain to me why you'd need to do anything post-coating application??
 
I'm almost done and can't finish it all in one day. So I sprayed dg wax till I can finish. I'm worried about the paint being squeeky clean now. Will the ipa be enough or am I gonna have to polish again
 
Not sure on that you may want to do several IPA wipedowns. Or just a quick polish to be on the safe side. Why would you do a spray wax anyways? No harm leaving it in a garage overnight with no protection on it IMO
 
after the cq it would stay in the garage. but it had to be driven today, that's why i'm not done correcting the paint. probably wont get to it till next weekend now
 
Oh gotcha. Well since you're not done correcting it you might as well just polish off the aquawax. IPA might remove it but then again it might not. I wouldn't take that chance personally considering all the work you've put in already.

You'll have to re-polish -- no guarantee that IPA will fully remove any decent LSP.
 
I'm not polishing again. It'll be a learning process if the coating doesn't bond properly. Besides theres probably way more polish on the paint than the little bit of duragloss i sprayed on
