Not curing suggests a factory problem....I suspect the best you can do

is some free paint if that is the case. I've never dealt with such a

problem. What brand of paint? Was it thinned, or some additive mixed

in? Very odd pattern to the problem

The guy from the paint store called back. He said it is called "Surfactant Leaching". I found this article online that talks about it: http://www.paintinganddecoratingconc...-Painting.html

He said to try cleaning it and I did one wall with a damp clean cloth and I have to say it looks much better. I'm suprised that it seems to have taken the sticky stuff off of the surface. I'll have to experiment a bit more with cleaning it and see how it looks.

I wish somebody could have warned me about this prior to this happening.

Every home improvement project I do I learn some lesson like this. But I always learn them too late!
