I finished painting my bike last night and it dried today. The parts look good but I want to put some more clear down today. I will sand it with 1500 and then spray again.

Question: I'm running my gun with 2 turns out on the material ****. The finish is smooth with no orange peel. Should I give it another 1/2 turn out to improve build or leave the gun as it as is?

I'm spraying House of Kolor UC35, 3 coats at a time per the tech sheet.

 

How for out your fluid needle isn't nearly as important as your air pressure, distance to the panel you're spraying, or how fast you're spraying. If it looks good, why spray more clear? More clear doesn't mean a better finish. It's actually more fragile the thicker it gets as it more prone to chips. When I shoot, I lay 3-4 coats of clear, hard block with 600, then lay down 2 more coats. For a driver, this has proven itself to look really nice with minimal orange peel. Otherwise, for a flatter finish, I cut it with 1000, 1500, 3000, then buff. Good luck.
