it could still be fine. the stuff i use takes about 6 to 8 hours before i start to want to play with it or move it in.
I am no pro, but my Valspar LIC epoxy primer (which is a little old) takes a while to dry/cure. It seems like I always forget how it stays wet WAY longer than sanding primer, and I spray it regretfully thick just to find runs and sags about an hour AFTER it looked fine. I guess because it is such high solids I keep foolishly treating it like build primer and spray it too thick. Then, because it stays wet for so long, I get aftershock drips.
Not to question your skill set, but are you sure you mixed at the correct ratio? The reason I say this is when I started painting I had hell of a time deciphering the mixing cups . Other than that, the only thing I can think of is too thick of a film build, but even then it should at least be handslick by now. What kinda primer you using?
If it hasn't cured by tomorrow, call your paint supplier. I don't even like to think about stripping epoxy primer.
how long did you let the epoxy sit after mixing? ALL epoxies i have used have an induction period .this period ranges from 15min. up to 45min depending on temp .what does the tec sheet on the primer say?
