Depends on what finish you use. Some like Flexcoat harden up pretty quickly. Aftcote takes longer.

I usually recommend about 3 days in a nice warm place after the final coat but I know people fish them after an overnight cure. The down side is an earlier (maybe immediate) cracking of the finish at the guide feet.
