After several weeks of having no time for the project I thought it would be great to shoot the first coat of butyrate dope yesterday evening. Humidity was indicated at 72% in a weather station 1 km away from my paint booth. Still the surrounding of the booth was quite wet, but I had to spray and jup...ended up having more work that before.
I used 25% blush retarder as always with Butyrate Dope but still ended up having blush in the first coat. Since I already had blush once in the first coat but got rid of it with the second coat I pushed on and ended with a fully milky surface massively blushed. Those were the first coats after spraying Nitrated. I'll go ahead and sand it off but am not sure how much sanding is required.
Is it enought to sand it till the milky appearance is gone or should I sand it down to the coats of nitrate dope? I fear cutting the weave of the Ceconite if done this way. Maybe some of the oldtimers can give an useful advice.
Thanks ahead!
