Was it the gun or was it the setup? Were you running enough pressure? Close enough to the panel? Enough material flow? Everything makes a huge difference. Even if it is primer and you're going to sand it anyway, you still want it to be applied well. With the proper setup, mixed to manufacturer's recommendations, and applied as per their instructions, there should not be a problem.
What do you mean by a dedicated basecoat, clearcoat, and primer? A dedicated gun for each material?
95% of the paint job's success (or failure) comes from the prep work. Make sure that is absolutely correct, sanded to the paint system's recommendations, etc. Be careful when taping things off. Stuff like that.
