Considering this, how long does arm R Seal take to cure?
30 days
Similarly, how long does general finishes top coat take to dry? Dry time is normally 2-4 hours under ideal conditions (70° and 70% humidity). Cooler temperatures or higher humidity will prolong dry time to 8-10 hours. Water based finishes must be applied at temperatures above 65 F.
Beside above, does ARM R Seal yellow?
The Arm-R-Seal itself will yellow with time. It's inherent with all oil based finishes. Since you have the means of spraying in the future if you would finish with lacquer you could save yourself a lot of grief. The finish dries to touch in a few minutes eliminating a lot of the dust that gets in the finish.
Do you have to sand between coats of arm R Seal?
After initial 1 or 2 coats I sand between coats with 220 on flat surfaces and 400 on curved edges and narrow surfaces to minimize sanding through the surface or edges. Between final 2 or 3 coats, I sand surfaces with 320. Caution - Arm-R-Seal is oil base so be careful with disposing rags.
