OK - this video is from an auto body guy, but it's applicable for us. I have never in my life shot a finish that had so many runs as this poor body panel has. But this guy has a clever trick in his back pocket that might work sometime if one of our members needs to fix someone else's very poor spraying..... I'm not saying it's genius - but it's a pretty sharp idea. We could use something like watered down plaster of paris... you get the gist. Watch and comment, guys! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mn6nPky0HGs |

Very cool. Definitely applicable to guys shooting plastic finishes as well as true lacquer. I was taught to use a brand new razor blade and various abrasive medias, and I was always scared to death I would ruin a finish. Wasn't such a problem on solid colors, but a sunburst or stained finish - yeah. This trick gives a finish guy a fudge factor or some wiggle room. |
