Sticky Super Shene Finish

[anester05]

I have been using tandy's Super Shene and after they are dry for a couple of days they stick to paper and other things. One of my projects actually adhered to a piece of paper and now the paper will not come off. Am I missing a step in the finish process? It does not seem to matter the amount of finish, or maybe I am always using too much? I use a Preval Power unit to apply my finish. Any suggestions appreciated.

Thanks,

Adam

Just a speculation: because Super Shene is water-based, perhaps the humidity in the air could be causing it to re-hydrate (or not even dry fully) & stick to stuff. I've had that happen on occasion- another reason I use it ONLY when a lacquer finish isn't compatible.

As far as the stuck paper, I think if you re-wet (or soak) that project, the paper will come off. But do it evenly, so you don't leave watermarks.

Maybe I should put some hot air to it. Or just a warm breeze after it has dried normally. The biggest problem right now is I am finishing up a project had a piece of paper stick then took some of the finish with it. Note some of the construction has happened. I am thinking that I can take a damp sponge with some Shene on it even out the spots that where stuck. Any suggestions?
