Re: Progess Report

I am using the UC35. My experience about the quality and laydown of the paint has to do with the spray gun you are using and the amount of reducer you thin it with. Its always a challenge to get a slick paint job without running in all down the side of your truck. Wet sanding and buffing is the only way to really get a slick job. I have a Sata Jet 90 spray gun that really atomizes the paint (very little orange peel). This will help reduce how much work it takes to wet sand it. You are better off having to wet sand orange peel than to try and get a run out. If you really want it slick sand it with 500 grit after the clear then reclear one more time now you only have orange peel from 1 layer of paint (just the clear) and not the sealer, base coat and clear. Wet sand and buff.
