Were the wings covered with clear plastic film while stored ??
There is a clear plasticizer that evaporates from the poly film
and deposits on the wings--makes adhesion difficult for next coat.

When I found the wings, they were covered with very dusty old bed
sheets. The wings were essentially clean except for the fine dust that
had filtered through the sheets.


If they are a dope finish, MEK will remove some of the dope and,
possibly, make a mess. I would suggest soap and water, instead, with a
good water rinse. You may have to do a very light scuff coat of wet
sandpaper to get t he next stage of finish to adhere.
