compatibility

Anyone else having compatibility problems using the Pearlescent Acrylic Ink and the epoxy lifting.?
Colors are awesome but they're not holding up on the maple needles.

I have had issues with acylics and Envirotex separating. I think it may be because I rushed the process and didn't let the acrylics fully cure before applying the enviro coating.

super watery jpi. I always heat set it then give it more than enough time for the water in it to evaporate before I clear anything I use it on. Stuff just has soo much water in it being ink and all, maybe there was still some moisture in it before you cleared?

Thanks guys, i really appreciate it. Thinking back, i think you're right about the moisture content of the inks.
I do hit the acrylic paints with a hairdryer and clear coat the same day without problems, but sounds like that's way too soon for the inks , especially in a damp cellar.
