About two weeks ago, I refinishied and rewrapped two old split bamboo surf rods for a guy. I put Carsons water based CP over the wraps and 24 hrs later used Threadmaster one finish, about three coats applied 12 - 24 hrs apart. After about two weeks curing time I called the customer and told him his rods were ready. He was supposed to pick them up on Friday so I put them out on my side screen porch. He didn't show up yet and this morning ( Sunday ), almost all the guide wraps have turned a cloudy, milky white color. WTH, never had this before . What should I do It's very humid outside with thunderstorms for the last five days? Will the guide wraps clear up after putting the back in my house?
