Tacky guide wraps

I touched up some guide wrap finish that I wasn't satisfied with, and the touched up areas are still tacky after two days. I am sure it is a problem with the 50/50 mix as I only did a small volume. My question is: What do I need to do to these wraps so I can apply a new mix?

Thanks,

Herb

I do 3cc's all the time with no issues. I do use syringes though. 1.5cc each. Someone may chime in with a fix solution. I have in the past had tacky butt wraps and just coated over them with success.

Another coat (properly mixed) should fix the problem.

I have had the same problem at times and I always coat over it and they always turn out fine.

You'll be fine with another coat.
