    Yeah, have to agree it is more likely humidity than temperature as we haven't even cracked 35 degrees yet as that will come over the next few months. Whilst temperature has been stable it doesn't take much to get humidity up over 60%, not that you seem to notice it as that is pretty average in these parts, unlike Perth where it is much drier air most of the time.
    Put another final intensifier coat on yesterday and giving things at least 7 - 10 days to cure before a light 0000 steel wool scuff. Will let you know if I have issues again with top coat application. Slow and steady from here on and glad I have another kit that just arrived to start work on.
