Default getting rid of tiger bands on spray bomb job?

I jsut did my hatch with rutoleoums satin black paint. Looks pretty good but i can still see some banding under certain angles. Is it possible to "buff" the paint or do something with it to get rid of this?

yes yes i know it will never look pro with spray bomb, but im cheap and 16 bucks sounds better than 300 that might jsut rust away in 2 years anyyway.

if you do it right, it won't rust away, you'll have a quality product for life. no, you can't buff it at all. i suppose if you were trying to go for a slightly glossy look you could try buffing it (and it would still look like crap), but if you want to keep a satin finish, you can't touch it. that's why real satin clear jobs cost a lot of money - the painter has to be real good. once it leaves the gun, that's it. done. can't buff it or else it shines.

If you get the Krylon brand spray paint it has a super wide spray angle and you wont get any stripes
