    Try this… Lay down your wetbed of blend additive over entire area. This gives a uniform surface for your basecoat to lay down on. Let flash… Apply color to bodywork area until you have desired coverage. Start your blend,and if silvers are the problem, try adding 666 right into your basecoat. You can add as much as you like but usually you wont need more than 50%… 666 is crystal clear and will not affect the fliptone, as 777 will. This should make the transition more gentle and less visible. Airflow and humidity play a huge factor in waterborne paints, so pay close attention to these. Motteling or haloing is usually caused by several factors and gun control, spray technique and air temp play a major factor, so watch your air pressure, distance,heat in booth, and never force blow the blend area. Tried it several times and the results are outstanding.
