Storm Dragons 3rd Company Posted November 23, 2012 Share Posted November 23, 2012 I just spent most of today working on 5 Sternguard. Went to spray them with some GW sealer. Now they have this frosty opaque coating on them. Help.<br><br> First, can anyone think of any way to fix this aside from repainting them? Because I need them tomorrow and this will be an all nighter?<br><br> Second, why did this happen?<br><br> Sealer is two years old, but I've used older with no problem.<br><br> It's humid, but I've sealed in summer when it is even more humid.<br><br> Was I too close? Did I use to much? This has never happened before.<br><br> Thanks,<br><br> Dan<br><br> Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/266394-help-needed-painting-accident/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peredyne Posted November 23, 2012 Share Posted November 23, 2012 Fast fix: brush on a layer of gloss coat or Satin coat. That usually fixes the frosted effect. Long fix: Strip them and start over. Good luck and stay cool, battle brother. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/266394-help-needed-painting-accident/#findComment-3244862 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should I throw out the GW sealer? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/266394-help-needed-painting-accident/#findComment-3244871 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should I throw out the GW sealer? OK gloss helped. The blacks are still "frosty".

S.k.i.t.t.l.e Posted November 23, 2012 Share Posted November 23, 2012 Least your problem was just with paint... My superglue had an air bubble in it and splatted all over my freahly painted Sanguinary Guard legs while I was attempting to attach the torso. Tried as fast as I could to get it off but they are :) -ed... Dammit.
