New air or not the paint will skim over, better on bottom than on top.


Does this have the effect of creating an artificial bottom that keeps the
paint closer to the top when the lid is opened? I've noticed polyurethane
especially likes to create thick layers on top that must be broken through.

It is a temp bottom, if it has skimmed over on the bottom it probably
needs to be stirred and there goes the bottom, but it is on the bottom.
