Always follow the label, otherwise you invite trash results. Waiting depends on the specs.
E.g., Many Rust-Oleum products have a closed window period. You can spray them up quite a bit in a certain window, then you have to wait for things to completely cure–sometimes like 24 or 48 hours before you can spray it again.
You’re absolutely correct. It’s been a while since I’ve used the rattle cans. I’ve been spoiled with an airbrush. Totally forgot about those directions, sorry.
Listen to this commenter, follow the can directions.
You and me both. My least favorite is finding out you missed a small step in a recipe and that you can’t fix it and just have to try to make the best of it hahah.
Clean the area carefully (you want to remove existing dirt and skin oils without damaging the autograph any further).
Mask the area off with painters tape.
Spray with 3 thin coats of spray polyurethane from the hardware store.
Give it a couple days to completely cure before handling it.
May be better to wait a bit between coats? Just so it dries a bit.

I don’t mean to brag, but I’ve screwed up many projects by not bothering to read the label. 😏
