Why the heck did the paint finish come out so ruff?
It looks like lines of dirt or sand all over the car. They can be seen easily and felt.
What can cause the paint finish to look like this?
Question? Since my car is already black, after I sand the car down it is still black, so when I spray the car, its hard to see where I need to start my overlap because the car is black and Im spraying black. Any suggestions?
What I do know!
1. I was a first time painter.
2. The gun seem to have random burst of paint when I sprayed. The sudden burst was like every 3 seconds of spraying. (I think the gun was dirty from the day before, but don't know)
3. I did not use a tac rag between coats. I did tac rag the car before I painted. Are you suppose to tac rag the car in between coats?
4. I also did not use a blower on the car.
TOday I have started the prep work for repainting the car please, I am taking ALL tips.
Backgroud:
-used and still using Kirker Hot Rod Black
-I am an ametur using a PROFESSIONAL paint facility
- Wash the car down with red Scuff pad
- I am first sanding the car down with 600 grit paper with orbital sander (wet).
-Then I will use 600 grit paper with the orbital sander dry.
- Then I will rewash the car
- then wipe the entire car down with wax and grease remover
- Mask the car
-Then finally I will sand the car down and wet.
