Todd,
I haven't noticed the stickiness problem with the Seymour paint I have but it
does take quite a long time to harden. Probably the oven cure would
accelerate that. What items I've done I have allowed to air dry. A couple of
customers have reported getting good results only with an oven but I'm not certain
why.
It's been years since I last saw any green FAA gear but my dim recollection
is that it perhaps had less of a brown tinge (i.e., closer to green than
olive). The green I have looks somewhat lighter or yellower than some NOS BC-611
parts I have but over time it darkens toward them (they were the color match
samples we used).
