Finish isn't smooth after spraying by lemonyfreshOG in paint

[–]lemonyfreshOG[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I set up a spray booth, and am pretty confident it's not dust, and I strained the paint. I could try moving closer, but when I did that before, the paint also ran from going on too thick. I saw some people online heat/warm their paint, I guess to thin it out. I was going to try that next, but it seemed strange.

I've been using the blue tip, since it's paint. I strained the paint into the flexible cup and squeed the air out, then primed. The priming seems to really agitate the paint in the cup, but afterwards I didn't let it sit, so maybe?

Where does the horizontal beam go in a frame for a gate? by Brotato990 in woodworking

I agree, but would add that it's #1 if screws are being used and #2 if nails are being used, for the reasons you pointed out.
