the only problem that i have been having with that is that when its dried i will pop it off and stuff behind the panel is not dry yet and it just runs out. how long should i wait for the stuff in the panel to dry?

it depends on how big a void you filled and how hot it is outside, I'f you fill your c-pillars in the winter it'll take longer
