That could certainly affect things Greg, especially if the air was even a little damp.
Try the water thing mentioned above, and if that works, then a second coat will almost certainly dissolve the "spots" and give a better finish, but move the model into a warmer, drier room.

Hi Folks,

After much pondering I have repainted the Jug. I merely put on a fresh coat over the spoilt one, and then redid the gloss coat, in a warmer room. I guess the low temperature in my hobby space caused the problem in the first place.

Decals are on and a Matt coat applied to seal them in.

Thanks for looking, cheers Greg 👍

Side note..
When I was sign painting, using enamels,
if I painted in a cold damp environment
I was sure to get a big bad blush in my finish.
And unrecoverable! So beware!

I'm sure most of us have, I did walk away from one, or two!
Won't alter the course of the planet!
Keep at it.

Thanks Bill, wise words indeed. It's great seeing everyone else overcoming the modelling mishaps, and helps me get on with it 🙂

Many thanks for all your comments 🙂

I'm calling this one done! Not my best I'm afraid but far from my worst 😂

A couple of mid afternoon outdoor photos with the sunlight fading. I'll get some better ones over the next few days for the finished thread.

Cheers, and Happy New Year to all 🥳
