Great job Rick! This kind of knowledge is so valuable. I have run into this issue in the past, just a few weeks ago actually. I tried adding more coats, but as you said it doesn't help. I had to remove the paint and start over. It was a big job to begin with but this issue had me stumped. It also made me look somewhat incompetent to the manager of a brand new account as it was our very first job for them. He kept coming out to check the progress and noticed that i started over on the paint. Knowing why it happens and how to avoid it is going to save me time and frustration in the future.
I was wondering if after all the effort in the presentation this would be received well and would help someone. You've made my day!
Small in following but high in value ❤
I love all of your lessons!
Wow, it is so deep!
Very helpful!
Professor Rick strikes again! Good information as always. I remember in the past dyeing some seats when it was snowing, using solvent finish. I had a heat gun in one hand and the spray gun in the other hand, not optimal conditions by any means but I had to get the job done.
That doesn't happen much around here. But we do have a LOT of humidity, especially in the summer. I haven't really had much trouble with blushing when using water base finishes, but again useful info , you provided some tips on that too.
That was interesting! Trying to locate the source of our issues is so key to avoiding problems. I recall when painting bridge steel in the past that one of the critical fundamentals was making sure that the ambient air temperature was at least 5 degrees Fahrenheit above the dew point. I would sometimes wear out my arm using an old manual sling psychrometer to make sure we were safe but the results always proved it was worth it to avoid costly and time consuming problems. Thanks
So a five degree differential to work in might indicate a slower drying solvent than what we showed here. Thanks for highlighting another practical application!

I've got a question on a repair that I can't seem to find any info on. We just had a Hyundai dealer call and ask if we could repair a door panel on a 2023 Ioniq. They sent a picture and I couldn't even tell what the material was that I was looking at. The dealer didn't know either. I did a quick search and the consensus seems to be that it's recycled Tyvek. I have no clue what I would do to repair a tear in this material. I know it's a relatively new material to be used in the automotive industry. That being the case you may not have experience repairing this material. Would you have any suggestions on a logical plan of attack on this? Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
I have no experience with this car. Sorry.
No problem. Just thought I'd ask.
hey my friend I have to chime in and agree with the master as well. but I have a good idea of what your talking about..good luck
