For those of you laqcuer dipping your bobbins, question -

I use some Lawrence mcfaddens lacquer, thinned a little. I usually have no problem just dipping and letting them hang. Within a few hours they are dry enough to wind on.

Today I dipped, and its been all day - they have wet lacquer just sitting on them...

Humidity and temp seems the same as usual... any ideas?

Other than that, what do you guys use to insulate? Tape, shellac?

What's the mcfadden part number?

I think Ive figured it out. I cleaned and cleaned to make sure any wax was gone the second time I dipped but apparently there was some left. Silly me.
