Hey Mark,
I for one appreciate the fact that you posted a goof-up, many of us will learn much faster because of it. The fact that you fessed up to it, earns my respect. Thanks!

And to quote 'reeves' . . . . . "if you ain't makin' mistakes, you just ain't doin' nothin'"

You could try this! Dip the lip in Virgin Laquer Thinner let dry & see if it clears up

Mark,
Why not just coat over the uncured epoxy with Dick nites ? I have had a couple that were slightly tacky and I coated over them with no trouble.

Boy, you guys are making me air all my dirty linen. I can't get away with anything! Tough room!
Bob,
I did try another coat of epoxy, but the first soft coat was D2T, since the lure is plastic, and the second coat I tried was Etex. Probably my second mistake. That coat didn't set up either. Another bad mix, probably. When you're on a roll......
Swede,
I'll try the lacquer thinner next time.
Pred,
I haven't tried DN yet, so I don't have any for coating on hand.
But I was thinking about trying it, so maybe this will be the catalyst.

Mark,
I coat all my lures now first coat 2T and second coat Dick Nite because way too many times the Dick nite eats my paint.
Since I started doing this I have never had another problem.
Every once in a while my 2T is not mixed right and is slighlty tacky but once coated with DN it is good as new.

Actone... Never tried it!!! Now I know!

My best screw up trying to strip paint!

I put a lure with rubbing Alcohol in my wife;s sonic jelwery cleaner!! I thought those sonic waves combined with the alcohol would strip it back to a pefect blank... But ding dong here forgot the Sonic Cleaner was made out of plastic and I had to buy my wife a New Jewlery cleaner!!... I did give myself a A for imagnation! I really thought it would work!!!
