"Dull Coat and Humidity" Topic

So I hit my 8 newly painted Ashigaru with dull coat this morning. Frost! It doesn't scare me anymore though, because I know how to deal with it.

I looked at the weather for the local humidity and today it's at 89%. Dang! The extended forecast says it won't get into the mid 70% till a week from Friday! A long wait.

I dare not spray them inside. What do people in the tropics do? I need a solution to this, all too often, occurrence.

Those of us in the subtropics wait for that 15 minutes when the humidity is close to 50% and 80degrees or October, whichever comes first. For other times I use brush on flat varnish on small batches.

Brush on products work fine for me…

I use hair spray. Aqua net super hold. 30 + years of gaming and no issues.

45thdiv; does the hair spray dry to a satin vice a true matt like Dullcote?

Thanks.

Go with brush on Dullcoate. I've never had any issues in 30 years.

I spray outside on high humidity days, but then bring them inside and place in front of a portable heater with a fan.

I shall look for and purchase the brush on Dull Coat. Thank you!

In my search for a solution I found this thing. Anyone have one or, seen one work?

I live in the Northeast, I have pretty much givn up on spraying outside wxcept for a couple weeks in October.

When I was a student in the Northeast (USA), I sometimes had trouble with matte enamel paints drying glossy. Nothing like that has happened to me west of the Rockies, however.

Spray outside, but bring inside to dry.

Wet dull coat stinks. Dry dull coat does not.
