I spent several hours today scuffing and cleaning parts in preparation for priming using P60G2 for the first time. I opened the can and....it's the consistency of pudding, or soft rubber. Like chocolate pudding that has been sitting in a bowl for several hours. I could stab a stirring stick into the middle and it would spit it back out. And yes, I have an unheated shop.
I tried swirling the can in front of a floor heater, and it seemed to help a little, but I could still stand the stick up in the paint.
So, my first question is- did I ruin the primer by letting it get too cold in my shop? If not, can I fix the problem simply by bringing the primer into the house and letting it warm up properly? It has been between 15 and 30 degrees F for about the past 4 days, never getting above freezing. Anything else I can do? I'm at a point where I can't make any more progress until I have primed parts.
Thanks,
