Subject: [Homebrew_PCBs] RE : Epson durabrite ink tests - I have ink -no printer...

Yup, I put fingerprints into the engine block paint I tested on the PCBs.
But today I can lightly scratch at it with my nail and not damage the
surface. If I had cured the paint AS RECOMMENDED (but too darn impatient),
I could probably take a nail to it.

My point is that it may not be just drying, in the sense of some
solvent evaporating. It may actually cure to a different chemical
structure over some period of time, after the solvent evaporates.
Lots of paints do this sort of thing. Let it sit in the sunshine for
a few days. It might react with UV, too.
