It's going on too thick. Find a way to spray thinner coats.

And, when you spray thin coats, spray the next coat while the prior coat is still tacky. That helps the two coats “melt” together and become one rather than multiple layers of cured paint.

I don't think his problem is that his paint is cured. I think it's that his paint is CURSED!!!!!

quality was low. I blame myself. not enough mentions of the awesome suite of products like the shovel, Marigold jacket and lightweight, elegant and aero seatpost.
i won't go any further, draw your own conclusions. The highlight may have occurred today when my 2006 wireless gear worked on my laptop saving my arse. That's how good my year was. #ItSucked |

I'll make it easy for you.
Number the bikes 1-5 by age, 1 being the newest. Sell/donate bikes 3,4,5. Problem solved. 1977 Schwinn Super Le Tour 12.2 (frameset only at the moment) 197X Track 1981 Trek 716 2014 Canfield Nimble 9 2020 Holdsworth Competition Track bike is on the chopping block for sure. I think I'm going to take the wheelset from it and build the SLT as a fixed gear with porteur bars. Should be able to fit at least 42mm tires with fenders and clearance to spare. More or less imitating this build but with 650b instead of 700c: https://cimg3.ibsrv.net/gimg/bikefor...0feba96cb6.jpg That still makes me N +/- 0 on complete bikes. I may end up decommissioning the Trek and putting the parts in storage, I just don't really ride the thing. And if the SLT has full coverage fenders I'd be all right riding it on wet roads so that satisfies my want for a wet weather bike. |

Am I the only one who doesn’t want more bikes?

Go outside. It's gray, dreary, chilly (kind of), and everything is dead.

Light rain, 90A. Greenery all about. Birds singing. I'm lying here in my hammock in a t shirt and shorts with the outside door open. And the ceiling fan on. Normal temp for this day is closer to 70A. Year with no winter.

Also, never wait longer than 15 minutes between coats, or if that time period passes, I wouldn't add another coat for at least 24 hours.

I already waxed it. I suppose I could sand it back down. I have one more yet to re-paint this non-winter. Who would have thought a high powered federal prosecutor would know so much about painting a steel bike?
