Using SBR, time between scratch and finish coats?

Not used SBR before - not done much rendering either!

So the SBR directions say NO MORE than 8 hours between scratch and finish coats. Is that right?

Normally you'd leave a day or two between coats.

Will the SBR make the scratch coat cure that quick?

How quick should render with SBR in be ready for a finish coat, at this time of year with ambient temps around 10C?

I can't imagine it would be easy to schedule the work with a 6 to 8 hour gap between scratch and finish? If you started at 8am and spent say 3 hours getting the scratch done, you'd stop at 11am and have to wait until 5pm - 7pm before starting the finish?

Am I missing something?
