Bed liner over Epoxy primer

I'm shooting some epoxy primer on the bottom side of my truck cab tomorrow morning. What is a safe time frame before I can spray a bed liner coating on top of the epoxy. I was thinking 72-90 hours later to allow the epoxy adequate time to cure?

Dan,

I'm sure you will be safe within that time fame. I have used bed liner after 48 hours. I usually spray a sealer coat of epoxy just like you would before base coat and then spray the bed liner an hour later.
 
Thanks; I'll be safe and wait at least 72 hours and keep the garage temp at 70 during that time frame..........
 
Like said, one hour to 7 days but the one hour is in summer time, so colder the shop, the longer you wait the better.
 
An overnight cure of the epoxy has worked well for me. I wouldn't hesitate doing one coat of epoxy and one hour cure in hotter temps.
 
The Epoxy was sprayed on Saturday afternoon and I kept the temp in the garage at 75 degrees for 36 hours: then I reduced the garage temp to 50. I will turn the heat back up to 70 degrees again today (Monday) and I plan on spraying the bed liner at 8:00 tomorrow morning. Since I'm within a week of the re-coat time, I'm assuming no need to scuff the epoxy before I spray the bed liner material?
