Looking for advice.
So a few days ago I planned on painting my Tacoma in temperature advised for my paint. The issue is I only applied sealer and it started getting humid and colder. In the next coming weeks I plan to finish the paint job. What should I do with the sealer I applied to only the doorjambs and behind the cab?
Thanks a lot.

You need to look up the TDS sheet on that brand sealer,
most want you to scuff it after a short period if not covered,
but some brands may vary.

Thanks for getting back.
Btw it’s a 2K Lumabase sealer and the tds says to scuff after 12 hours and apply a topcoat. Would this be the same for 2 weeks later?
Thanks

Yes, they are saying anything after 12 hours.
That's typical.
