The surface remain sticky after I leave it to dry to 5 days. Any idea why?

Usually that is the result of putting on too heavy of a coat. Multiple light coats with dry between is the way to go. The coats shouldn't even be heavy enough to cover the object entirely in color. It can also be temperature or surface related.

I had a similar problem with this product. The piece has since flaked. The only good news is that I don't have to touch often! Thank goodness t didn't try to paint a door knob with it.

that's really interesting. I've used this paint on wood, metal, glass, resin and plaster. Never had any issue of anything being sticky.

On the surface about 30 minutes but for it to be fully dry you should wait at least 6 hours.

Spray it on and leave it. It will dry in minutes. I only used it until it cleared up and then didn't need it again. Good luck.

We use it on our oven and haven't had any problems for the several weeks its been there. Perhaps it could affect the adhesive over time. Also, we do not use our oven daily or even every other day.

Yes, it stays sticky even after getting wet. Mine is still just as sticky six months later. Great product!

Are you referring to the included 3M double sided tape? Any double sided tape should do.If you're referring to the sticky pad at the bottom, just rinse it under water and after it dries, it will be sticky again. Let it air dry as any lint or dust will make it loose its adhesive properties.

Well, the problem is you need to wash it and let it dry before you use it again. if you do that, it sticks great.

I would think the surface is not clean enough. Could there have been something like armor all on it? I use it on hard plastics, metal and glass and it sticks very well right away. I would try cleaning it with alcohol first.

I let mine dry for 24 hours. As for high traffic areas keep in mind the product is absorbed into the wood not laying on top of it like a varnish or urethane. If stained it might show premature wear in a heavy traffic area.

Try cooking oil or mineral oil. That usually makes that type of sticky material give up it's hold.

I was fortunate and didn't have any residue left. Try using a little goo gone. Don't really have anything to lose if you can't use it all sticky

That is a problem I have never had. I would try pulling all the material out and turning it well and then putting it back. Leave it uncovered for a few days to dry out a bit.

The tip became permanently glued on after a few uses, so I just unscrew the whole top part and apply glue with a toothpick. It's much easier to control that way anyhow. And it doesn't seem to be drying out.

Take a damped sponge and wipe it clean. Let it dry. Once dry it should he sticky again.

It's not sticky. It feels pretty smooth, actually, so you shouldn't have that problem. My husband has not complained of that being a problem.

After drying there is no odor or stickiness. The product has no negatives that I am aware of

All you have to do is rinse the stick pad, let it air dry and you should be able to stick it again.
