Default Painting.

have a compressor and paint gun but the SCFM just isnt enough i think. I tried to thin the paint as much as I could but it was just sloppy.

going to can paint it just to hold me over i guess unless you have any ideas.




i have it wet sanded and smooth as butter, going to have to resand it tho cause the spray gun blotched it up.

400 is WAY to low. If you want a good job that will last you will be looking at atleast 2K for a paint job.
