When applying Spraymax 2K aerosol clear over aerosol lacquer, how long should I let the lacquer dry first?

3-5 months

Dang! It must take you forever to complete an airplane.

lol, That info came from a guitar site.

I try to wait a week between finishing systems nitrate/polycrylic/rustolium but for lacquer I'd give it at least 2 weeks.

Does setting the model in the sun help speed up the outgassing process or whatever?

At least some users of dope wait times measured in months at several points in the process, particularly after fillercoat/primer. Have to let it outgas and shrink as long as possible before sanding it.
