I’m gonna give it a half hour when I repaint. Going to sand until I see no sign of bubbles and try two more coats, maybe one if it covers well. It’s only about 15% of the boat that got the solvent pop, still going to sand the whole thing down, at least through the last coat. I’ve painted a lot of stuff but this is the first time this happened! Going to be more careful in the future!
