The paint has got a rather sticky feel after I left it dry for 8 hours. How to make it feel dry & smooth?

A good primer coat is key for these to adhere and dry well. Also if you have some heat lamps, and whatever you are painting is okay with the heat, putting the heat lamps on them will help them dry and cure better.

If it's dry I used a paint scrapper for excess, small amounts in the brick I was not able to remove. It its still wet or tacky I used a warm rag with dish soap.

I live in Texas and was working at around 85-90 degrees F. I had trouble with fast drying paints drying in/on and clogging up the sprayer. You might want to try clearing most of the poly by spraying water/detergent solution through the sprayer with the second cup. Then, put the spray tip in water/detergent solution and place a damp rag on the open spray head--not the entire sprayer--while you wait. Certainly, the poly can stay in the cup if it is capped.

If it was still damp after 60 hours I'm guessing it was on too thick and must be the solvent. Mine was completely dry after 48 hrs but I still had some stain so I did it a second time.

I would just wait til it's completely dry. I loved these for my daughters room and I had to re-stick a couple of times and never had a problem with paint coming off.

With the nickel finish you'll generally want paint with thinner, otherwise stuff gets gummy on the inside, use thinner and clean well and you'll be golden. On long work projects I recommend cleaning after 60-90 minutes of use then resuming.

when I applied the E.S.P, I waited until is was almost dry, then I painted over it. It was an oranges latex paint that simulated wood grain. I then applied a polyurethane stain. It sure beat sanding the woodwork, and then applying the stain

I myself did. I just followed the drying time on the paint i used, which was about 6 hours. It might be better if you wait longer in humid conditions. The only problem i had was I used it over white paint and it yellowed some. Its not a problem since it was on a worktable. I don't know if the same thing would happen with other colors. I hope this helps.

It takes a wh8le to get the paint down to to tip....shake like crazy and push down to fill tip and try that. If you had used it before it may need done again. Otherwise maybe it dried out.

I waited a couple of hours between coats. I did very thin coats. I found this paint dried in a similar fashion to others. It wasn't significantly longer For drying time in my experience

Use a spray varnish, one that comes in aerosel form. It seems like the varnish re hydrates the paint, making said paint wet and then it bleeds. Maybe try an acrylic sealer before applying the varnish????

time and ease. I used a few Mr. Clean Magic Erasers and had cleaner wax to rub it off. Good luck.

You might need to sand it. Check with local paint store, test it on one of the support bars at the bottom

The paint in bottle did not dried. It remains as it was before, totally usable. Because, after using last month, I followed the instructions and added a small portion of water in it, without sacking the bottle, and then closed the bottle.

I let mine dry for 16 hrs between coats and then 48 hrs after done to ensure complete finish. Turned out great

I honestly cannot tell you that. But I would try some kind of cooking oil and rub it on with your hand then try a soft cloth to take it off. Let it on for awhile to try and soften the paint.
