What the hell? Remember the thinner mentioned earlier? This is why it's needed. The paint was too thick to spray right out of the can and came out of the gun in globs rather than a fine mist. This was actually the second attempt-the first resulted in a spatter effect similar to the inside of a trunk on '60s GM cars. After thinning to what seemed like enough, this was the result. Obviously the paint was still too thick. This illustrates why it is important to spray a test panel first; the only instructions on the paint can recommended to thin it as necessary up to 25 percent. Further thinning smoothed the paint out and allowed it to flow out of the gun properly, but the damage was already done to this mirror, and the paint will have to be sanded off. View Related Article
