The Road to Do-Over
I waited a week for the rain to stop and the dewpoint to drop so I could paint my steering column.
I ended up with a wrinkled mess and am now on the road to Do-Over, USA, which is a well-traveled highway in my garage. I don't know anything about the paint chemistry (pic attached). I tested on a light primer and it looked too flat and too light, so I decided to spray it on top of a gloss black enamel, which did darken the color. How do I avoid this next time? Did this happen because the aerosol didn't like the gloss enamel or because I sprayed in multiple passes instead of one heavy coat? Because the color is metallic, I heard it would look wrong if I did it in multiple coats, so was trying to keep it wet with a few multiple passes in quick succession. |
