I also wanted to mention that I did send an e-mail to Warlord to see if they will replace it.

The model was a little tacky on the surface, but I have had resin models that cleaned up and were fine. My normal procedure for all resin is to was with warm water a take a tooth brush with a little comet cleaner to them. I did this with all the models from 3 fleet boxes and this one seemed fine after that, was no longer tacky. It showed up quickly after priming. I let set for 3 days and the areas never hardened with the Tamayia primer, but it was their light gray, and did not notice the wet spots like in my 2nd attempt. When I stripped it I washed it again and there were no sticky spots. I let dry for 3 days before I sprayed it with the automotive primer. It instantly looked like water under the primer bubbling to the surface. I left it sit and in the photo it continues to weep moisture, and it is reacting with this paint more.

I have the same thing going on with one of my German ships from the fleet set.

See attached photo. First time was primed with Tamiya model primer that I have been using for years on resin, and metal. It had a bunch of soft spots, so I stripped and tried Duplo color automotive sand-abl. Another proven primer for resin. The photo is of that primer, and it’s getting worse by the day. What ever is leaking to the surface seem to grow more with time. None of the other ships have shown this issues and I have 4 fleet boxes so far all at least in primer.
