: I would wait a minimum of 4 days. While the initial cure will be
: much faster the epoxy continues to cure for at least a month but
: after 4 days at normal room temperature it'll have reached about
: 90% of the cure.

: It'll cure faster at warmer temperatures and slower at cooler temps

On the other hand, Varnish takes about 200 years to cure from what I've seen... at least when I'm waiting to apply the next coat. :)
