What did you paint it with??

When I did mine 2 years ago it was slightly sticky for a few days, but that went away.... I used Fusion by Krylon.... still looks awesome after 2 years.

 

It depends how thick of a coat you put on it. If you laid it down pretty thick to get that nice smooth finish, you'll be waiting a WHILE for the inside to dry. The outside will somewhat dry quickly, but then the inside will still be wet. The only way the inside will dry is from the outside, so the outside will be tacky for a while, and there's a good chance the inside hasn't dried much at all.

Either spray it thin, letting each coat dry completely, then wetsand/polish (only after paint has been fully dry for a couple of weeks), or spray it thick and wait about 2 weeks before using it.

If there's one thing I've learned about paint, it's that a good paint job takes time and patience.

 

Just a random thought, doubtful if it would help at all, but i'd run my heater at full blast for awhile and let it get real warm inside everyday maybe a few times a day just to keep it at a warmer temp so it can dry. not sure where your located but if its cold outside and whatnot i'm sure the lower temptures arn't helping it dry any. Get some pics up! hah

 

all i can do is laugh at ppl

 

wow, thats awsome

 

Time and patience is the key. I would often spray a thin layer and fully dry each coat before adding a new one. Helps me avoid the stickiness and making sure the inside is dry as well.
