ryanb Posted January 9, 2007 Report Share Posted January 9, 2007 General concensus (as i've heard it anyway) is that Duplicolor pretty much takes FOREVER to dry ... especially if you get it too thick. Warmer should be better, but I think you just need a whole lot of patience. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually FYI, there are ALOT of (acrylic) lacquers in Duplicolor's line. The standard auto touchup paints and the Metal flakes are both lacquers. Don't use the Duplicolor for the clear coat though. I've used Deft over Metal Flakes it it worked out well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dino Posted January 9, 2007 Report Share Posted January 9, 2007 ryan's right ... that stuff takes forever to dry. IMO, your best bet is to try spraying very lights coats. And as pointed out ... lots of patience. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
