For anyone who uses this system, I bought the perforated 60 Ga Biolefin wrap. Does anyone know if I can wrap the bars and let the cure in the plastic since it's perforated or should I just wait til it's fully cured?

I have the same system, which I love. However, I believe the bars still need to be fully cured before wrapping.
Well poop, I was hoping to be able to just wrap everything I had already made on my day off this week. I hate wrapping soap. I'd rather make it than wrap it.

I hate wrapping soap, mostly because i am so bad at it. I got all set to wrap and label bars last night and i ended up with 16 bars done before i got frustrated.
I agree with Kari about letting soap cure before wrapping. There have been a few similar discussions recently --
Not directly related, but might have a few tidbits -- Store soap in cotton muslin bag?
And here's one more directly related to your question -- Curing soap in glassine bag?

I use paper boxes with cut-outs and still wait for the full cure time before boxing them up.
If you let them all cure, and a month or two from now, go to do the shrink wrapping, the end result is the same. You'd still have lots of soap to wrap all at once. It just wouldn't be done this week. You can do something else that is fun on your day off. Enjoy another day of fun this week.
Problem is I might not get another day off for awhile.
