spray paint question

I have a quick question, after you have spray painted over the primer, and you can see the little specs from the primer, as in say if I painted over white primer and the paint is yellow, it looks good color wise but you can see yellow tiny primer bumps, add more paint?

you gotta sand the primer smooth first so you don't get bumps

:mad: Ah crap, oh well now i Know. I honestly didnt know you have to sand the primer smooth, thats just newbism on my behalf. Oh well it still looks good actually so next model ill get it right.:mad:

Could someone post me a pic of what their model looks like just before they spray it? Im just a little confused as to wether the primer should be smooth as a baby's arse or..... Ive read all the faqs and posts, but they all are geared towards people that have been doing this for a while as aposed to someone totally new.

The primmer should be fairly even and smooth

I'll be starting a new thread which may help you out also

im a noob and wats a primmer and sanding..???

wat iz it and where can i buy / make it (that wire thing holding up that white body???

the wire thing is a wire coat hanger bent to a new shape so it can be used to hold the body while you spray it, you tape the body to the hanger and then you hold the hanger as you spray.
I think you can get them in Mom's closet, unless she catched you, in which case Dad's closet is the next best place......hehe....
Hope that helps you a little.

I'll have you know i still have a patent pending for the coat hanger thing. :p
