Undercoated and final rub down. A quick final wipe over and then the top coats.

Well I had some novice dramas on Saturday. I started with a new bigger gravity gun and it just spat out lumps, took ages to get through 800ml of paint and thinners. I thought it was the gun. I persisted for about 3hrs. Then the old direct drive died. It got me through a first coat as pictured in the previous post. Today I spent a couple of hours sanding the lumps away. I hired a twin belt drive from Bunnings, wow what a lazy lump. Just chugged along. I also pulled out the new tin light tan. To see if that made a difference. It did after a bit of gun adjustment. I was a bit worried about using the cam brown and green which was similar age to the first coat, but was ok. Here's the result. Not quite to plan but time got away and had to get the compressor back.

What brand and type of paint are you using ,and what company are you getting it off?

Another pic unwrapped.

Most of the paint was Protec. The last tin was Concept Paints.
