I'm working on a 70 Nova that I plan to have a vinyl top installed on (original vinyl top car). I stripped the car to bare metal, then SPI epoxy, etc..
What are you guys doing as far as paint cure time before installing the top? Would I be better off not painting and clearing the top of the car and leaving it in epoxy? I will be using SPI Universal Clear.
If everything goes well I would like to have color on the car by the end of the month. The little bit of information I could find out there about vinyl tops installation says wait 90 days for paint to cure. Obviously I do not want to have to wait that long. My inderstanding is that factory cars had very little if any paint under the tops.
I have always removed vinyl tops, this will be the first car (and I have owned many) that will actually be getting a vinyl top installed on it.
Let me know what's best if bc/cc and waiting 90 days is a must for best long term results that's what I will do.
