I have 5 coats of paint on my hull which I brought aroung and up to the deck, looks great but if it gets rubbed or bumped, the shine disappears, its been drying for 9 days now,low humidity, and feels smooth too, so why is this happening. CLC says it needs time to dry, hmmmm how much time, the varnishing is going well, wet sanding in between coats, and doesnt leave a mark when bumped schooners&nbsp; good stuff....any thoughts welcome

&nbsp; Hey Ocean, I remember your previous thread. I have used Brightside without issues so can’t offer a solution. I would suggest contacting Interlux, maybe they are familiar with this? Aside from that maybe some very careful buffing…I dunno.
