I wanted to finnish the rest of my slammers, an the bottle I CARVED out.BUT, I sealed them w/ VAL-OIL , set them out to DRY. PRIMED them 2 days later,an let that dry for day, an put some BLACK on them an let that dry for day,BUT today I checked to see if they were dry to put another coat on, an they were DRY.BUT not in a GLOSS FINNISH. I did a few outhers in different colors an they came out good. w/ gloss finnish. could the plugs STILL be WET ! an not dryed threw.

should I sand them down an let dry for a week an then give it a shot?
the paint is the same I used on outher BLACK ones I did.:uhoh:

COMMENTS WELCOMED:uhoh:

thats weird...scuff them and try again, epoxy will give them a gloss look, maybe the paint wasn't mixed good or is going bad, for some odd reason, can the gloss part settle to the bottom:ss:

If you used rattle cans shake for a minute before painting and shake every once in awhile while painting. Could it be that you didnt shake the can enough?

Old paint and/or not mixing it well will do it, that's for sure.

Neva dried. :smash:

Strike_King, YES I did use VAL-OIL, an YES I did thin it. just like the ones befor. BUT I believe I only let DRY for a couple of days, the outhers I let them hag an dry for a WEEK. my fault for not letting dry longer.
GOOD LUCK GOOD PLUGGIN:)
