Ledzendrix1128 Posted October 8, 2005 Report Share Posted October 8, 2005 So i got 2 small knicks in my finish right before i got ACL surgery. I drop filled the knicks with a Q-tip, and it turned out fine. Today I just started getting up and moving around (its been a week since the surgery), so i decided to finish drop filling so it was level or raised above the plane of the rest of the finish so i could sand it down when it came time to buff it. But as soon as i did this, the nitro i put on started getting cloudy. It looks like the new nitro didnt bond with the original coat of nitro that has been drying for a week+. Is there anything I can do to fix this other than just level sanding and buffing and hoping its not as noticable after this? Thanks - Louis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryanb Posted October 10, 2005 Report Share Posted October 10, 2005 Maybe try using some "blush eraser", which is just a nitro solvent that will help re-melt the layers together. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ledzendrix1128 Posted October 10, 2005 Author Report Share Posted October 10, 2005 I was actually considering doing that, but I just don't want to make the problem worse. I was also wondering where I could buy this laquer solvent. Can I get it at Lowe's or Home Depot? Thanks again. - Louis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maiden69 Posted October 10, 2005 Report Share Posted October 10, 2005 let the drop dry a day, it usualy dries crystal clear. If not then try the blush eraser. Stew Mac sells it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ledzendrix1128 Posted October 10, 2005 Author Report Share Posted October 10, 2005 (edited) its dried 2 days now and it still looks bad... but i think the stuff at stew mac is discontinued **EDIT** - nope sorry, the blush eraser is in stock, I was looking at the "Laquer Melt." That is discontinued... my mistake Edited October 10, 2005 by Ledzendrix1128 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
