Default it gets worse!

HI all!
I'm sure you know by now I am painting my own car. After finding out I should have used a grey primer instead of white to match my sample I sent them, the paint company said sorry and sent me some for free. The problem is that after I sprayed the best looking primer grey job you've ever seen at a distance, up close I had small dust size particals all over and it was NOT dust. These were so small that a standard sized filter did not take them out. I called the factory and they said maybe it is the primer and will get back to me. I tried to sand them but you have to get aggresive I ended up taking almost all of the grey primer back off. I got very frustrated and now taking all of the layers of paint off and starting over stripping my car again. I can't believe this!!!! [:@] So much for making the Mustang rally next weekend.
