One fuel tank done!

I'm New Here
Just want to say how happy I am that I am done with the black death for a little while. I finished up the left tank tonight :)
Now my question is how long to wait before testing. I live in a very warm climate (south florida). Should I just play it by ear and wait until the pro-seal is no longer tacky? It goes off very quick down here. It will lose the tackiness in 2-3 days.
Thanks!
 
I would wait at least 3 days for the sealant to really tack up. There is really no rush for the testing. It is not like there is going to be gasoline in the tank real soon. :D
 
Proseal cures quicker with high humidity.

I waited 5 days but 3 days is sufficient if mixed per instructions. Get that other tank started while you waiting. Passing the leak test was a big milestone for me. Have fun.
 
I tried to wait 5 days but only made it to 3 on the first tank. No problem and no leaks. Second tank is done waiting to be leak tested.
