I found the source of my striping issues were from me holding my gun to close to the panel. The best way to prevent them is to do an orientation coat on all metallic colors. Basically on your last coat turn your pressure down to about 20psi, open your fan wide open and spray a light coat with a 90% overlap about 10 inches from the panel. Essentially your misting on base from a distance, this helps even out your metallics
We got the truck in bits and pieces. It was all disassembled with a lot of pieces missing. It was actually quite the nightmare. Lots of small parts like seals and moldings were missing, and some bigger parts (the rims). Things like the Cadillac tail lights and roll pan were already welding in and installed (poorly). We cut off the old roll pan and instead installed the ground effect kit and molded it on. We really discouraged the lambo doors too and weren’t going to go with them till we found out the kit was already partially installed (POORLY) We had to do some cutting and welding to get the doors to open and close properly. :blink:.
If it was my truck I’d do a lot differently but they say the customer is always right. :rofl
The clear is D8152 Performance/Glamour
I don’t have time right now but I’ll post some pics of it to show what it looked like when it first showed up. It was a mess, you guys will marvel at the spraybomb interior and crooked roll pan and everything else that got redone. Some stuff was done well the tail lights were installed fairly well. :pcorn:
I do really like the lambo door poster :lol1
I agree with Ryan 100% on a nice hot day with low humidity water is the cats meow. The nice thing about solvent was whether it was hot or cold it still dried relatively the same unless you used the wrong reducer. I would never go back to solvent personally :woohoo:
