You are correct! How about that…

FWIW, the shop which replaced mine certainly didn’t let it sit for 3 hours. That was ~4 years ago, and, aside a fresh set of chips (the car is a year round daily driver), nothing negative to report.

I need a new windshield in my Cayman, as it's been sandblasted by track use and winter beater duty. Even has a pinkie sized chip that I've fixed myself. But I've been reluctant to change due to the stickers from various tracks that I'd lose - 4 COTA, an Indy, and a Kansas Speedway. Two from 2015 and two from 2016. At some pt I'll have to replace it but I'm going to hold on as long as I can. Might have to go w/ track maps on the rear window then.

The shop that I used didn't wait 3 hours either. They did put masking tape over the molding at the top and sides and instructed me to leave it on for a day and not to wash the car. It strikes me that the POSES instructions discussed here were likely issued at least 20 years ago for the Porsche products used at that time. Dare I suggest that the adhesives used today are totally different?
