[QUOTE="Apocalypse Boy, post: 59659, member: 597"] Tee Hee... A clean gun will sort most of you're issues, especially on clear coat. If I have a look at you're pictures you suffer from "orange peel", two guesses where that name came from :). What gun are you using, a good High Volume Low Pressure gun with a 1.6 mm jet works good. Something else to look for is a FORD cup, it measures Viscosity, to help you get it consistent. If the paint is thick enough, try sanding it with 800 grit wet till you cant see the bumps, a quick 1200 grit and then some rubbing compound and you should be good....STAY AWAY FROM THE CORNERS !!!! YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!!!! Oh, give it a day or two in the sun to make sure it's dry before sanding it, if it gums up on you, leave it another day. [/QUOTE]
