What is the dry time
3
I just finished using this product. I let it set overnight or 24 hours and it turned out fine and hard. I had an area of 12 square feet and a depth of 2 inches.

The typical compressive strength of QUIKRETE® Sand/Topping Mix at 28 days is 5000 psi. The earliest potential walk on time for QUIKRETE® Sand/Topping Mix is 16 hours. This would be under good curing conditions, including a temperature of approximately 70 degrees Fahrenheit. The colder the temperature, the longer you will need to wait. Although it will be set, or hardened after 4 to 6 hours, it does not yet have significant strength gain at that point. For best strength results, moist curing should continue for a period of 5 days in warm weather at 70 degrees Fahrenheit or higher or 7 days in colder weather at 50 to 70 degrees Fahrenheit. The length of time for freshly placed mortar to dry will vary and dependent on water content used to mix the concrete, curing temperatures, humidity, weather exposure, etc.
