Default Fuel Proofing HELP NEEDED :(

Hi,

Hope someone can give me some advice, ive built a spitfire and was told to fuel proof the whole thing as its covering is wierd and would not stand up to the fuel. So as adivsed i fuel proofed it with AeroKote Matt Finish which was a brush on mix, BIG MISTAKE the problem is it just wont DRY, its left the whole plane with a tacky feel ive tried to spray over it with a Fliar fuelproofing spray but had no effect and also a Clear Acrylic Spray and again its had no use its still tacky.

Is thier anything possible i could do, as im really about to give up on this plane, just seems a waist as ive destroyed it without even flying it. Guess you learn by your mistakes



Thx for any info
