Clear Coat Problems
Hi all.
I'm having a bit of a problem. I was helping my friend spray a small section of his car. The paint turned out great and blended perfectly to the old colour, but the clearcoat came out really bad. It came out looking like a golf ball. I was very particular in using wax and grease remover in the prep. The same thing happened to a motorbike part I was spraying at the same time. I am not using professional products, and don't mind if i shoot down orange peel as it is rather easy to fix, but I didn't expect it to turn out quite like this. I have sanded the motorbike piece (blue) down to 1500grit, resprayed clear, then sanded down to 1500 again and it still is showing some dimples. I was thinking of doing the same to the car but but don't want to have to respray 3 or 4 times in order for it to be smooth. Does anyone have any suggestions?? I'm using a preval setup and air dry. 50mL HiChem Super Clearcoat 25mL HiChem Medium Hardner 8mL HiChem Thinner I'm wondering if I sand the car down as flat as I can and use the clear coat in a can, if that'll turn out okay. Would the can version adhere to the 2pack clear coat? I appreciate all comments and criticism. I can't afford a full spray setup, and have found preval to work in the past, but am unsure why it is doing now what it is doing. Thanks Andrew |
