Tim,
no real advice for you. I can say we had to shoot our clear 2X when we tried it. I learned that I'm not good at painting... but sand it down with 600 and then reclear it. are you running the right temp of hardner in your clear for your weather? that made all of the difference for us. and we made sure we shot it at the time of day to match our hardner. all I can say is 2nd time was better.. so I hope your 2nd time goes smooth (paint-pun-intended) brant |
