So c0wB0y, you going to do a second batch and re-coat the original? I'm thinking that's what I'll need to do, but I'm not sure if the mineral spirits are going to soften up and make a mess out of the sil that's already on the fabric at this point.
My only thought here is that the 60/40 cotton/poly blend absorbs way more sil than nylon. I'd start with a double batch and see how much was left over if I had it to do over again.....
