new one on me!
Posted by Anonymous on Wednesday, July 13, 2005 9:31 PM
Like it says in the title, this is a new one on me.

Two ship anchors, built sanded, filed and snded again. washed.

Into the spray booth, tamiya grey(yes I'm English,lol) primer, both anchors done.
Ones is dry, the other refuses to dry! I will need to sand and redo as it nows has finger prints, going on 3 days now!
Both parts we're kept together in the same enviroment, low 70s RH at around 50%.
I don't get it? if I sniff the wet anchor(stop sniggering at the back) it's still evaporating solvent.

Hey Vapo-paint, like women will surprise you! I suggest stripping the part and repainting it. Jeez-I'm about to do my first ship model ever-you've scared me. Where's the gin???

Doesn't make sense. The only thing I can think of is that the one that hasn't dried had some kind of oil or something on the surface that is slowing the curing time.

Maybe the second got a shot of the Tamiya crud...you know, the same thing that occurs when you try to use them for handpainting and the colors and drying times turn weird.
