A while back, I tried my hand at Envirotex, after reading several of the recommended tutorials. I used a couple of enclosures I had etched and painted with Duplicolor Metalcast.
The tops came out okay, but the sides....no so much.
Has anyone ever Envirotex'd over this paint before? Just wondering if there is a compatibility issue. It was almost like the paint was trying to repel the epoxy, even though I frequently re-brushed the sides as instructed.
I'm afraid I already know the answer here, but is this somehow fixable? If I sand down the entire enclosure, I will lose most (if not all) of the reverse etches on top. If I only sand, re-paint and re-epoxy the sides, keeping the two paints from getting on the tops will be a nightmare, and may end up looking pretty weird as well.
I would just toss them and start again, if not for having to do the reverse etches again...
