Anywhere from several hours to a few days.  As important as humidity is 
temperature.  The cooler it is in the room the longer the dry time.  Also if 
you can get some air circulating it will help.  Don't leave a fan blowing 
directly on the wall but a ceiling fan or oscillating type would help.  Once it 
is dry to the touch you can move the furniture back just not tight to the wall 
for a few days.

  Subject: [BlindHandyMan] paint drying


    
  How long does it usually take for paint to dry enough to do the second coat? 
The first coat is up in my living room, but we are covering a wood paneling 
with a bone color and are going to need one more coat. At least I hope it is 
only one more coat. *smile*

  Second question, how long until it is dry enough for us to move the furniture 
back into place and then to actually be dry. I do have a dehumidifier going in 
the room to help the process along as yesterday was a rainy kind of day.it has
