I applied chromaseal on thread early in the morning then put threadmaster lite on late in the evening and the thread looks blotchy did I not wait long enough before putting on the finish wait time was about 8 hours

Either that or you didn't get a uniform coat of CP on the thread. Or, your thread wasn't packed tightly enough.

What color thread over what color blank?

What Tom said

A thread-regular nylon ?? 1 - 2 or 3 coats of CP ?? Black blank Thread Packed Very Well ??

Thanks guys I thought I had it packed pretty good I don't think I let it cure long enough and put to much cp on at one time

With Chromaseal cp you want to apply at least two full coats and let it turn on a dryer until completly dry and the colours have fully returned, sometimes with differrent temperatures this can take a little longer, but usually the next day the colours will have completly returned with no bleed through issues. You can apply finish to the wraps the next day but i always prefer to wait at least 24 hours first.

Hi Bucky,
I'll second Steve's comments although I don't let it dry in a dryer and haven't had a problem.

I have found putting it on while turning like said gives better coverage
30 min later should be set If warm
Several coats

The simple reason i turn the rod on my dryer when applying a full coat of Chromaseal to the wraps is to prevent it from dripping and building up at the bottom if i just let it sit until dry. I check it every so often and usually turn off my dryer when it is almost dry.
