I’ve been rebuilding a high tide for a long time now and thought I was nearing the finish. I ordered some Parker Duck Boat paint and put on a few coats. Been waiting a couple weeks for it to cure but having a problem. If I rub my hand on it, it leaves a chalky looking spot or I rub my fingernail across it leaves a mark. I called Parker and he called it burnishing and said I likely had it on too thick and suggested sanding and putting another coat on.
So this past week I sanded with 150 grit and laid another thin coat on and it seems to be doing the same thing. Has anyone else had this problem? Is this what I should expect from this flat paint? I’m thinking about sanding it all off and using something else or spraying a clear over it? Any thoughts??
