Didn't turn out that well, was rushed and realized afterwards that I was using a TOUCH UP hvlp with a 1.0mm tip! Arg! Oh well, at least my bumper is red. Now to get rid of this orange peel...

 

it doesn't look bad after all from a slight distance. try wetsanding it and then after polish it to eliminate the bubbles.

 

Will probably do that tomorrow!

 

nice car let me have your rims

 

Leave the orange peel on it doubles as a chip resistance surface.

 

just sand it and respray it. u will have alot of time in wet sanding and buffing

 

It actually should of came out good. I use my Sata minjet all the time on bumpers and other small parts. I actually prefer to use it over my Satajet 3000. I actually painted my brother enginebay with it last week.

Well I used a Minijet. If I would of used my other gun (Sata 3000RP) it would of drained the compressor quick. I really like using my Minijet though, I have never been disappointed with it And thanks for the comment

 

Are you sure you didnt paint that bumper with a roller?

just kidding wet sand and reclear it

 

turned out a HELL of a lot better then the first car i first painted

orange peel couldn't describe it..

um

looked more like

the surface of 200 grit sand paper.

then again i slapped it on, no idea wtf i was doing, no wet sanding, etc etc.

Not bad for your first time!

 

Realized the pressure was too low as well, thats prolly what got me too..Painting my hood and trim soon, I'll post hopefully better shots lol.
