So I bought a new one gallon can of hydro Côte Sr about a week ago had it mixed in hopes that I would get a window of time to paint the bottom. Well as luck would have it this didn't happen, weather did not corporate. Second attempt was today.
I had the paint remixed just before I was about to start. Opened the can and the paint has small chunky globs of what appears to be unmixed paint sediment suspended in the paint can.
So I went back to the store and had them mix it again. Went back to the boat to paint and opened the now shaken twice paint and it still has chunky globs of paint in it. Now the store i originally purchased the paint from was now closed. I then went to a local paint store gave them a few bucks to shake it up again. Fifteen minutes on the shaker and still chunky globs in the paint.
Some of the chunks look to be from the sides of the can because they appear to be smooth.
I don't want to thin the paint out to see if thinning the paint will help the chunks desolve.
Conditions were within mfg specs and I've used this exact paint before with no issues.
I am planing to contact Pettit and the store on Monday, but that doesn't help me now.
Questions are
Has anyone ever had this happen?
Why will they not desolve back into the rest of the paint even after over fifteen minute on a shaker?
Can bottom paint go bad if it sits on a retailers shelf to long.
