| Go to Sears and buy a dehumidifier for the room you model in. This will circulate the air in the room and remove the moisture from the air, which are the two things that make paint dry faster! Using enamels this will also keep the paint from crazing and rainbowing. If you are shooting acrylics, use 91% isopropyl alcohol as a thinner. I shoot acrylics and have a dehumidifier, and my paint coats are dried and fine to handle in about an hour. |
