I have finished a foot long butt wrap and planed to put on the epoxie today. I had to let the rod sit for a month and put on another coat of CP last night to prevent any possible leaks. I have don this in the past as I have to wait untill the kids are out of the house, to atractive to a toddler and the cat.
I put on the CP last night and went to bed while dreams if a finished rod danced in my head. Today the wrap is cloudy/opaque like the top coat did not adhear to the bottom, and it looks bad.
What can I do, how can I get it off? I need help or therapy. Oh yes it is Gludebrode 810 CP.
Cheers Ron

If it won\'t peel off then you might be in trouble. I know it has an alcohol base so maybe alcohol will cut it and remove it, but it might just make a mess of the whole darn thing. Can\'t say I\'ve run into this before.

I am thinking "2 " things. If you washed it with alcohole before putting it on, the alcohole might have made it cloody ?
Also if it is hot and humid you may have mosture in it, called " blushing " Don't know if it will do any good, but try warming it with a hair dryer it may ? help ?

Thanks for the help, I wiped a section with alcohol and it did soften it and the unwanted opaqueness went away. I let it dyr and it seems good. I will work on it in sections so it does not get streched out of shape, wrap saved so far.
Cheers Ron
