Maybe a harsh glare or two. --- End quote --- What about flat out cussing the ---steaming pile of meadow muffin--- out of it.... oh.... tried that... didnt work I read humidity causes clearcoat to do this.... makes sense as it was raining out and humid as hell. Also read it may clear up as it cures..... guess I just have to forget about it for a couple days and see. Just needed to vent out. For some odd reason the ol lady dont seem to care about this little project. :dunno |

Spent 3 hours sanding the clearcoat off the front, 2 coats of flat black....looking good. Light coat of clear...looks great, second coat looks great.... run out of clear in the can, decide to use a half full can from before..... bam.....milky foggy damn mess. I get pissed and throw the can down on the cab so ill have to start all over again. Flat black with satin clear looks great when the moons aligned right and the suns in the right elevation and earths aligned right with the luck spirit but damn.... i have clearcoat overspray all over the inside of the cab... it doesnt just wipe off. My sides look good but feel the texture of 400 grit sandpaper so not sure if vinyl will stick. I feel like tapping out on this project while I still have my sanity but have too much time and money iin it to give up. I just wish I would of went with a damn roll on paint job or stuck with semi gloss and not used the clearcoat. Again it looks fantastic when everything goes right but thats only about half the time with me |

Yeah, I've gotten better at spray painting because of this hobby, but there's no way I'm stupid enough to spray paint a whole cab. If you use quality paint and equality roller, there's no reason why you can't get a great finish. |
| yotsuya:
Oh, please note, I'm not calling you stupid. There's just no way I would spray paint a whole cabinet. |
