So,.. I've recently discovered that I am not a paint expert, ...
Two issues:
1. Even after maintaining a dust free paint environment AND shaking the ssip out of the can, I still have stuff (lint/hair looking stuff) in the final paint-coat finish. Can this be polished out, AND how is paint polishing done anyway?
My paint process is simple: Primer, wet sand (800 g), 1st color coat, wet sand, then final color coat. I'm about to attempt my first clear coat over this final color coat, but am waiting to find out about polishing the color coat first. (for FG rocket tubes)
2. I think I've noticed that if I spray another color coat, over a still-wet rustoleum coat, that as it dries "crinkles" develop. Crinkles: it looks as if a microscopic mountain range is trying to push up through the top coat from below. I assume that this is a result of the bottom coat trying to dry while being covered by the top layer. I would appreciate a real explanation about this from you paint experts.
Thanks for the help!
