    Pest, what did you mean by "wiped away"....

    You know you only apply highlights across the grain and you never wipe with the grain when applying highlights?

    Pest, I'm wondering if your highlights had gotten a bit too old? Was the material the highlights were in very liquid or was it more dense/rubbery? My highlights don't seem to maintain much beyond 2-3 months....

    It has gone off, definitely! That's why it hasn't applied properly!

    Top coat seems to last a bit longer than 2 months so should be alright. You really needed to have kept these in the fridge while you were waiting to use them. Put the top coat in the fridge ASAP to ensure it lasts the next month or two.

    Top coat should be fine as long as you haven’t opened the bottle yet...

    Guess I will have to send the Pest some more silver.....

    There is always a workaround for glitches, mistakes and other Guitar building gremlins.....
