1st time doing this as I find hp-12 pretty s**t but I have to use it on a job,

Obviously it's base and then mesh but would I be best leaving this to dry fully before doing the 2nd coat of base or would the next day be ok? Always find base coat bubbles/blisters in this weather in TC

Next day is fine.
If it goes off well and the background is nice and flat you should be able to base coat in the same day.
I like HP12. It’s a good base coat.
 
There is a knack to most thin coats. But at this time of year I base and mesh, spat off flat. Thin tight coat over the next day. Less chance of ripple.
