If i spray it on heavy it gets weird patterns, but if i back off on the wetness then it comes out orange peel like, real rough and dusty. I got good, mostly even coverage on the last coat, but now you can see all the stroke lines in the roof and deck lid. Oh well live and learn! After another bout with the 600 to 1000 grit ill try again.

i can not post all the thing s you must do but if you call me i will tell you alot of it
