My buddies repair tractors and have them painted by a local guy. He is very skilled but is old school. He only uses the CNH enamel with no hardener. My buddies were fussing to me that the paint is still "soft" weeks later.
Well on Thursday I painted a NH blue hood. I didn't use hardener. It was a small job and I just didn't feel like setting up the supplied air. This morning I masked the blue and shot the black on the hood. I peeled the taped after 30 minutes. The tape(green painters tape) had textured the blue paint! The paint had been sprayed 36 hours ago and was in a 70 deg heated shop the entire time! I don't remember having these issues in the past....
