    I did apply a drop coat, I don’t always tho. I don’t recall the recommendations, hopefully it will be out the door soon. lol

    I have mixed feelings about it, in the cross-draft I usually hate it, the last few days have been wet out and it’s taking 20 minutes to flash off (with blowers). I have to dust on 50 dry coats odg style instead of applying it wet, maybe he’s on to something,,,,,,, ……. haha.

    If you have heat put it in winter mode at 85 degrees. It snaps the humidity out of the air. Not for nothing I don’t care for Onyx at all.

    Loving the dancing 😆 Adds a nice bit of humour to the video. Although if I were you I’d stick with a career in painting :p

    Adding to what protek says above – whilst I’ve never used onyx I do tend to ramp the heat up a bit in between coats to help the water base flash off faster when I’m doing a several panel job. I suppose it depend how quick your booth reacts, but I’ve found ramping it up from 25°C to 35°C (~ 77f – 95f) really helps, especially on those bigger jobs where you can’t get full coverage with the blowers and have to keep moving them around. Then drop it back down when you’re ready for your next coat.
