So it looks ok then for a single coat?

I have a 1.8 tip I think. I wasn't sure how much reducer to use so ended up doing a 8:4:1 mix with the reducer and hardener. It seemed real thin. I should probably use less reducer next time. I was changing my distance a bit and need to stay more consistent with that. To do the top and back of the cab I had 1 cup of primer, plus the reducer and hardener.

I don't know how to tell how thick it is.
