It probably has to be cleaned up with denatured alcohol because it has
some sort of rubberized pigment in it that cures in air. A look at the
ingredients on the can would be a help to everyone in determining its
properties.

I truly don't know of any. Even so, it's got to be better than no vapor
barrier at all.

Painting the interior of the shop reminds me of a thread (which I
unfortunately grabbed and ran with <g>) on the old brit_car FIDO echo
between myself and a guy from the St. Louis area on how to properly
paint and decorate a garage, and it sort of turned into the idea of
putting the outside of his Mini on the inside of the garage.... I was
eventually accused of sniffing too much Imron before sitting down to
answer the mail. <smile>
Cheers.
