Default Zymol cure time?

I see some carnuba waxes you have to let cure anywhere between 15-30 minutes depending upon which wax you are using. Zymol waxes say apply a small section at a time and then immediately wipe off. I know alot of people say follow the manufacturers directions, but can you let, lets say Zymol Concours, sit for 15-30 minutes to cure then wipe it off, or is it going to be like cement by the time you try to wipe it off? Has anyone done any tests regarding this? Thanks for any information regarding this topic.

Zymol Creme when I let it dry for 30 min was annoying to take off . I'm not sure about the other ones though

(Although I applied it thinly I think I micromarred my car in some spots where it wouldn't come off w.out QD )

I personally like to leave the wax on for about 15min or so, I don't really have any issues removing but it really depends on humidity, climate ect..ect..I've left Vintage over night on one of my vehicles and I removed it with out any issues but my garage was quite hot and quite humid that weekend so it really depends where your located and on your climate...well that's just my opinion

Hope this helps.
