[quote]QUOTE: Originally posted by nfmisso How did you handle them after washing? It sounds like you got finger oils on them. Isopropyl alcohol is another good cleaning agent. After washing, use only clean tweezers to pick up the small piece, clean cotton gloves are good for larger parts. [/quote] Yes, wa***he parts with Isopropyl alcohol and don't handle them with you bare fingers. What kind of paint are you using? I recommend using Floquil primer and let it set for a week. Also each top coats should be thin. Allow at least a week or more for the paint to cure and harden before assembling the castings.
