I could use some advice on lighting for painting. I'm totally new at painting and I've been applying white epoxy outside just to get some paint on the bare metal before winter.
My problem is most of the time I really can't tell where the wet edge from the last pass is when I'm shooting the next row of paint. I can see where I've been when I stand back and look at it at a low angle in plane of the parts, but that's to late. The parts are laying flat on horses and I'm just blinded by the white, even in the shade.
I've got one more truck bed side to shoot Thursday and was hoping to learn something to make it go better.
And since I've learned that painting outside sucks with wind, bugs, watching the temps and getting overspray on my work truck 30 foot away. (does anything remove cured epoxy? )
I think I'll be needing to build a temporary booth in the garage, and if anyone could direct me to some good info on proper lighting I'd appreciate it . thanks
