WARNING: Don't do this.

So I sprayed the molds with black acrylic enamel Sunday night out in the garage and then after they were dry enough to move I brought them in the house to finish drying so the could be wet sanded.

Pic of the drying ducts:


Look pretty damn good. I was patting myself on the back. Well I get home today and wet sand them with 400 grit everything is fine. I wipe the residue off with a micro fiber cloth. Then just to be sure I got all the particles off I use some rubbing alcohol on another micro fiber cloth and take them back out to the garage to shoot another coat.

Worst of the krackle peel


The front here is turned out and is very smooth "what it all was supposed to look like"


So 2 things because I'm not sure which is the culprit. Don't use rubbing alcohol. The other is temperature. The house is 70 deg the garage low 30 to high 40's "where the paint is" I'm wondering if because the paint was cold and the molds warm from setting in the house all night affected how the paint cured???? I can get it cleaned up with some more sanding just thought I was going to the polish phase of the molds by tomorrow.

My NASA TT Lisence came today so it wasn't all bad

Stay tuned we should be laying fiber soon.
