S***

So I sprayed my window moldings with what I thought was rubber coating from autozone but it's still sticky after one night of drying. Does it still need to dry or am I F***ed? I don't know what to do...

What you want to get is plasti-dip. See if you can find it. I think a spray version is made.

yeah, that stuff will never dry... remove it ASAP and wash the parts down with rubbing alcohal or aceton or some other solvent before attempting to put anything additional onto it.

A little turpentine and some plati-dip later, my weather strips are back to doing what they do best... de-weatherizing...
