I like to give them about a week to dry before priming. I used to prime sooner (3-4 days) but noticed on a few of the lighter color lures I was getting bleed through, they where pine so I'm not sure if it was sap or sealer.
I have some plugs hanging that I sealed a few months back and never got around to finishing, you can still smell the turps on them. They gotta be dry after sitting for 2 months. Depending on the wood I'll soak up to an hour.
Hope this helps.
