I resealed the valve cover on my WRX today (damn half moon seals...) and I used Permatex High Temp Red RTV Silicone Gasket maker. The tube says that it needs 24 hours to be fully cured but online it states that letting it sit overnight will suffice. I finished the job at 5:00 pm today and I need to drive the car tomorrow at 7:30 am.

I'm wondering if this will allow enough time for it to cure or should I wait another day. I'm working on getting a ride to work but I may end up having to drive the car.

 

you should be fine.

 

Cool thanks man. I don't want to do this job again but I really do need my car tomorrow but I don't want to rush it either.

 

I think you're fine too, speaking from experience with this exactly
