As you guys can probably read, im educating myself on details, i have read many sites and some say you have to allow your lsp to cure for 12 hrs. Is this only for carnauba wax or any LSP even if its synthetic?

I would say that its for polymer sealants.
So manufacturers say to wait 20 minutes some say to wait 1 hour and some longer.
As for carnauba waxes I would say letting them set for 10-20 minutes is enough.

Most sealant or wax doesn't require 12hrs to cure, as pyiu said some sealants e.g jetseal109 just need 20mins to cure.
Most waxes are just wipe on and off (No need to cure) especially carnauba wax, but if you want to put another coat of wax, it will require 12hrs to let the wax sit on the paint before you apply the second layer.

2 coats of Jetseal109 (20 minutes between coats) followed by a coat of Victoria Wax (laid by hand and finger tips) is what I do.
