One Shot....32 bucks for a quart of Tremclad?

[signmeup]

Just got my first quart of One Shot lettering enamel. Smells exactly like Tremclad/Rustoleum alkyd rust paint at twice the price. Says it takes 2 to 8 hours to become dust free and 12 to 16 hours to handle. 24 hours to recoat. Longer if it's humid. Yep....sounds just like Tremclad.

I'm quite surprised that it takes this long to dry. I would have guessed it would be a real advantage for it to dry fast on a customers truck doors.

In hot weather I've had it dry in 15 minutes.
