Hi,
I'm almost done with my bike-frame and I have painted the whole frame with 5 layers of resin.
It has dried in 48 hours and when I started to wet-sand it (using 400,600,800 and 1200) the surface is really dull.
Do you know why this is:
Is it poor sanding (I actually tested with only 1200 and it is still dull)? or has the resin not hardened yet?
As soon as I put water on the surface it is nice and shiny again, but when the water has dried, the dullness comes back.
