This product is waterbased, so surfaces should be clean and it will only dry as fast as water naturally evaporates. So if you apply in damp or cool conditions, it will be very slow drying. Instead you should apply on a clear warm day, and the product dries very well.
Sorry you had a below average experience, check out our reviews, as many other have had a great experience with this product. I have used it several times, and it is a great product if you give it a fair chance. Thanks. GardnerGibson

If you end up with thick spots (for whatever reason), those areas will take a very long time to dry (assuming they completely dry at all). And, if you end up with heavy rain before it's completely dry (like I did), the product may become soft and partially wash away (which it certainly did for me). I say "partially" because, just like paint, this product only completely washes out if you clean it immediately, so wear old clothes and shoes when applying. On another note, I ordered two, but they didn't come on the same day. One of the buckets had no label and a lid that was extremely difficult to get off. Thankfully, application was relatively easy except roofs are HOT, so take an old towel with you to catch the sweat!

Cooled trailer by about 10 degrees. With the sun shining on the roof it is just a little higher than outside temp. Worth buying.

Requires MORE THAN 24 hours for cure even in California weather. I've got rain next day after completion--all gone, had to redo the job :-(

Response from GardnerGibsonJan 31, 2018
Sorry to hear your frustration. Sta-Kool products are waterbased, and do need warm and dry weather conditions for proper curing. When that happens, you will get excellent results. During winter months it is difficult to get proper drying conditions, so be patient and find the proper days for an application.
If you are applying the product before an approaching rainstorm, use our Eterna-Kote Silicone Roof Coating. This moisture cure product sets up much quicker and would be a better choice in that environment. Eterna-Kote is rain safe in 1 hour.
Regardless of what product you choose, the longer you allow the product to dry before rain, the better off you are.
Thanks for purchasing Gardner products, and I hope this information helps. GardnerGibson
