Thanks ScaleMaster. As I read many threads, and with your post as a confirmation, I changed my whole idea of painting. Now I see that I just have to add a certain amount of paint, not too thick but not too thin, which I will be stripping lightly (polishing) in order too make it smooth. Previous to AF I thought that painting was the process of adding paint layers up to the point that I get a glossy layer. I´ve been living in darkness...

I had to add a layer on the doors as the passion of polishing made me go too deep and strip the paint. I always leave to dry/cure for many days before I work on it. Also I´m working on about 5 parallel projects, so it will take a while for the updates to come.
