Will post some Finished pictures as soon a I can get it together. |
If there's a lot of humidity in the air when you spray, it can get trapped underneath if your lacquer dries too quickly...called blushing. It will usually go away after a little time. You can add retarder to your lacquer before you spray, which will slow down the drying process and allow a little more time for the trapped moisture to escape.
