Burlapped my first foam decoy yesterday. It was a bit messier than I thought it would be, but cleanup was easy so it all balanced out. My question is how long do your burlapped decoys usually have to dry before they're ready for a final light coat of mastic? Once it seems fully dry should I give it an extra day just because?
Second question: I'm looking at starting with a pair of black ducks and getting more complicated with my painting after the first pair. I know I've read where some folks have gotten flat paint samples tinted to whatever color they need. Is there a better source for paint than buying a bunch of pint sized paint samples you'll never use all of for 8-10 bucks a piece?
