I washed the paint work down with sugar soap, after sanding. The problem is I didn't realise you were supposed to rinse it I know, I know now!). I have painted over it, but will it do any damage over time to the new paint?

it may prevent 'keying'!

when its rinsed off it degreases and makes the paint an excellent surface!

lol to you lot!

Dried detergent that thinned down won't do anything.
