Re: questions about priming

If your primer is nice and smooth (no orange peel etc) after painting dont sand it.
Sanding only makes dust which needs to removed 100% to then get a good paint finish

Re: questions about priming

the 5th thread in 3 day you star about Airbrush

You don't want to start one thread and ask all your question about airbrush in it aren't you ?

Re: questions about priming

You will know you did good priming job when the surfice will fell smoth under your finger, it may not look perfect on sight but if it is smoth under your fingers than you will know it is OK.
