This logic makes waaaaaay too much sense. Noone will possibly believe it can be valid.

If you cleaned the surface properly you should be good to go imediately! I put on the wheel badges and drove off right after and 6 months later they're still on!

You can drive immediately. We don't recommend waiting any time at all. Once they're attached, no curing time is necessary.

I heard you need to wait 30 minutes after applying or you might get a cramp and drown.

i thought this was a joke... but from the responses folks are taking you pretty seriously!

imo you shouldnt drive the car at all, but should leave it at my house for an inspection and test drive! i will bring it back to you after i am sure that the badges are on tight!
