Just hit it with 80 grit on a random orbital sander and start over.
deezdrama:
What about flat paint? Will it be ok on its own or should it be clear coated?

Im def not using clearcoat this time around.

Just not sure if flat on its own will be fine or if I should use gloss or semi gloss for a harder finish??
yotsuya:
I always use black satin enamel and it looks fine when dried. No clearcoat needed.

Rustoleum Satin Black Enamel and no clear coat is needed. With a nice smooth primer underneath, I only needed 2 coats of the satin black. Just did this for my mini Qbert and I'm very happy.

deezdrama:
Ok.... yeah flat black looked great before clearcoat and was pretty smooth too.

That damn rustoleum clear comes out thicker than snot.... maybe should of went with krylon.

Had great results with the rustoleum painters touch flat black on its own so probably will just go with it again.

Could probably be cheaper if I rolled on some paint but I dont want anymore surprises.

30-some cans of paint down the drain  :badmood:
