That is pretty weird, mine only did it about 2-3 days, each of the 3 times I've used it on my piping systems. The curing was pretty quick but if you get oil in the wrap....oh man maybe that is what happened to you. The wrap with the thermotec paint has to cure first. I left a section under the oil filter area unwrapped just for the reason because of oil changes dripping oil on it and taking a long time to burn off.
