What can you do to fix the problem if it doesn't dry? The painted table is still sticky after 3 weeks.

sorry to tell you , that you did not mix your formula properly, or the hardener lost it,s punch.Hardeners contaminate easily, and if they freeze, they loose the ability to blending ability. The solution is not so easy, seeing where your precious piece is locked in Limbo!The answer is to throw more fresh hardener at it! Put goves on and rub hardener on the piece until it hardens.

This usually means that the ratio of mixing was not exact, or that that the mixture was not thoroughly mixed. I usually use a small bit extra hardener just to be safe and I have not had this problem since. Be careful not to overdue it though, or else the finish will not be as rich and resin-y. There is not a way to fix a sticky job, that was caused by inadequate mixing or uneven portions

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.

Agree- must have puddled it on to get it to be sticky. Brush or roll it on, and it soaks in and dries pretty quickly. I have even walked on it within 2 h of application with no apparent ill effect to the finish (although I would recommend letting it cure for the full 24 h)

It dries to a light beige color, similar to light wood. Depending on how thick of a layer you use, it can take anywhere from 1 to 4 hours for it to dry. It layers well though so you can keep adding on over time. It fixed the chewed corners of our table really well. We sanded it down and stained it so it looks like nothing ever happened.

I clean it with furniture polish and also with a multi-surface cleaner such as Pledge Multisurface. I've had this table for about 5 years now and love it!

Wow thank u, good to know/keep in mind, i just purchased mine a couple of weeks ago. Maybe try wiping down the surface? Maybe its been de-sensitized?

The table has sat out all summer, lots of rain, no rust.....EXCEPT...the screen that you put over the fire to prevent sparks flying has rusted after we used it for a fire. The fire burned the paint off. Was thinking about spraying it with the spray paint for high heat. The table itself is very nice.

I just rinse it off with water and scrubbing with my fingers. Once it dries it will be sticky again.

Water doesn't seem to afect it. However, my son left paint thinner in styrofoam cup that seeped through and took color off. I mistakenly rubbed it hard and took surface down to wood...our mistake. It is great table and chairs.

I have painted the table myself. So just forget the answer I had given to the question ask of me. I do not want any problems. So everything is fine. Thank you for the response to my comment.

Clean the surface with alcohol, tubbing, not the drinking kind. And ince you attach it hold it for a few seconds. It took a couple of times for me too.

I found that the planner will not feed wood through because the in and out tables get sticky and need to be cleaned. I also use a dry spray lubricant that does not leave residue on the wood. I spray up the tables and the wood slides through much easier and does not bind. If your wood is warped that could be another issue.

It hasn't peeled until now, even though it is wet quite often. I wipe it once a day, maybe every two days to avoid the water to soak into the wood.

All of the wood should be treated. Then let it sit 24-48 hours and you're in business!! Love this stuff...

If you really want it to last longer, of course a coat of paint will help. I use a clear coat of varnish on mine. Be sure to let it dry well and hang outside to get rid of fumes.

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.

Probably contact the manufacturer. I've had mine for years and haven't had that problem, but if I did, that is what I would do.
