Alright. I'm building a Revel F-86D and the instruction sheet is filled with complicated paint colors like Anthracite, mouse gray, tank gray, and patina green. I couldn't find a reference to match these Revell Colors to my good ol' Tamiya colors so yesterday i bought a few tins of Revell paint. I dipped my brush in Tamiya Thinner to get things started (as i always do), and went painting over a previous coat of tamiya dark gray.
That was last night. This morning, the paint is still... sticky. it seems dry, but strangely sticky, like scotch tape. Is it really supposed to be this way?!? It's been in my airconditioned room since last night, so the air is a bit dry.
I'm rather upset, and have a good mind to strip the parts, chuck the paint in the rubbish and go at it again with tamiya. Where did I go wrong and What should i do?
Here is the cockpit tub, stuck to the end of my finger, being held up by the paint... it's rather funny, actually.
