Stripped resin body, now soft.

Hi,

Great idea, I've no issues waiting.

I stopped coating the under body with resin as I did a small area for testing.  I've let it soak in warm water over night hoping to leach out any chemicals.

I noticed the water was a bit different after words so the soak did something.

Will let it dry for a few to see what comes of it.

I think giving it plenty of time to air or dry out or whatever may happen here (there's no way to really know exactly WHAT the problem is without formal chemical testing and analysis) is a very wise decision. If there's any hope of your resin shell returning to normal, time will surely help. Alcohol DOES in fact mix with water quite happily, so a water soak could possibly be beneficial, but if the alcohol has any hope in hell of coming out of your resin body, simply setting it aside (in such a way as it isn't going to warp) for some time is probably your best bet. Low humidity and a warmish environment would probably be good too...simply to try to encourage evaporation of the alcohol out of the resin...if that's even possible at this point.
