Default Question about copper spray headgasket

I'm just needing a quick answer. When spraying the gasket do you need to wait until it dry's or do you put it on when it's still tacky?

when its "dry" its still tacky........a couple small light coats and 10-15min later it should be ready to install.

Well I wouldn't use it if my block was perfect. I've read your thread pertaining to hylomar and I haven't been able to find any body that has it. I'm in too big of a hurry to wait for it to come.
