Paint still sticky after weeks
KungFuJoe:
I live in southern cali (orange county) and the cab is in the garage. It's been mostly dry heat around here...and big time......
RayB:
I used to live in OC. It's pretty damn dry down there.
So I don't know WHAT's going on... bad batch of paint?
Maybe sitting it out in the sun will "cure" the paint.
KungFuJoe:
I'll try that this weekend...it should still be hot.
ginno:
When I got an old tin of brown paint tinted black @ the hardware store the owner told me the actual tint never dries in the paint and for that reason you can only tint it a certain amount.
If your paint was originally black it should be ok, but if there was something wrong when they tinted it, maybe this is the issue..
MaximRecoil:
I've seen paint that simply never dried. I had a friend who painted a checkerboard onto the top of an end table. I don't know what type of paint he used, other than the colors (black and white). After a few months he gave up on it ever drying and stuck a large flat mirror on top of it. The first time I saw it, it had already been about a year and a half and you could still leave wet paint on your finger if you lifted the mirror and touched it.
