In my haste to prime a Katyusha rocket launcher, I sprayed gloss black enamel over the kits vinyl tires and they dont seem to be drying. What do I do to fix this?

Any help?

You could try some over cleaner, that normally strips
Enamel paints well, might be worth trying it on a scrap piece
Of vinyl first just to check it doesn't do any harm .

Well...

If the paint does not dry...simply wipe it off with a piece of cloth or tissue then.

Thank you for the replies...

Having posted this question on another site, I was warned that the vinyl tires will now eventually crack and split due to italeris brand of vinyl. So...as what usually happens with all my russian vehicles, the thing is going to get a mud or snow bath.
