My walls and floor are built and ready to be assembled. I am going to seal the floor this afternoon. I am using Henry's 107. Do I have to allow the floor to completely dry before I put it on the frame and put up the walls? Also, does the Henry's dry to a sticky tar like finish or a dry paint like finish.

I was told yesterday that its Henry 201 is the quicker dry version. If you have the manpower I cant see why it couldnt be tarred and lifted and put down onto the trailer except if the tar were to drip.

I used Henry 201 and it dried to the touch in less than 24 hours (90+ degree weather). May take a little longer in cooler weather, not sure.
If it was still a little tacky I don't see a problem with putting it down on the frame.

Let mine dry with a thin coat a few hours, put on a second coat. The next day I dropped it on. And it stuck!!!!

I like sticking!

To my amazement, it dried really fast. I would say within two hours. The spots where I put it on thick are still a but tacky. Now I will start putting it back together. I can't wait.
