Hi guys,
First I would like to say thanks for all the information on this forum, it is very helpful.
As stated in the title, I sprayed the bottom of my 69 Mustang today with grey SPI epoxy.
In general it came out great, however I did have a few general questions and one specific area that had a problem.
I am using a devilbiss finishline 4 with a 1.5 tip @ 35 PSI.
The paint went down fine, however it is not "smooth". Does that mean I was moving too fast?
Hopefully you can see in the pictures. I didn't get any runs at all. However there is one area where I obviously did something wrong as it looks like a really bad orange peel or something I don't know. There is a picture of that are attached.
I also noticed that where I trimmed around some sections (like the seatbelt reinforcement in the picture) that the paint is glossy and smooth.
That is what led me to believe that I am moving too fast or not laying down enough paint for it to smooth out. Thoughts?
Regardless I am a happy with the outcome, but I would like to avoid/correct my mistakes in the future if possible.
Thanks,
Steve
