What kind of paint did you use? Acrylic enamel with a hardener will dry regardless of circumstances. Non hardened enamel could take several days.
However, there are so many variables in paints, it's hard to tell what the problem is, if there actually is one.
I was once involved with a new leased Ford E100 cargo van. The original paint from the factory never hardened. If you spilled gasoline by the filler and wiped it off with a rag, you got paint on the rag. Ford covered it under warranty and a brand new van, with less than 1,000 miles, was scraped down to bare metal and repainted.
At first the Ford District Manager just couldn't figure out what happened to "that one van". Then in conversation he let it slip about all the other vans that had the same problem. So apparently even the Ford factory painted a whole bunch of vans with a batch of bad paint.
In your situation, I'd give it a week or so and see what happens.
