That clear stuff is probably your thinner then i guess. Hard to say why then.

How are you applying it, cos you can proper lay it on, not like solvent

were on standox at work. it's thinned to roughly 10%. it's pretty lumpy to spray if it aint thinned down. the standox stuff is thinned down with demineralised water. might be worth trying to thin it.

theres your issue mate, i usually give it a light coat, 2 wet coats then a drop coat. Giving each coat time to dry between.

Also some people like to drop coat while its wet but in my experience it doesn't really matter
