    Default painting car question..

    I got new doors last week,so it was blue car with gray doors..so i decided to try to paint them at the house.
    had a buddy from work get the paint mixed up for me,
    Shop-Line; probably not the best in the world but atleast its blue.

    1st) i sprayed the sides last week *Thinking it was already Reduced like i ASKD* but it sprayed out like sandpaper-looks flat blue,feels like sandpaper.

    2)Went yesterday and got some specialty reducer for all temps, its a 1:1 Ratio, Sprayed it and still goes flat blue,and textured.?

    Any Ideas getting actual SMOOTH base coat?

    spraying with a (1.4mm)Sharp SGF-HLVP,gravity feed

    kinda to show what it looks like and talking bout..and yes 2 clear coats too.. VVVVV


    comparison to what it use to look like before i messed it up..ha bumper>Fender
