HI guys,
I painted my MX-3 a few weeks ago and it looks great besides the passenger side near the bottom of the door and rocker. I had less lighting on that side and I can see I needed another coat of base there. Today I plan on prepping it and spraying it in the morning in my garage. Question is, how would you guys perform this blend as in gun angle and technique? I have SPI intercoat and am using chromabase. I plan on using 800 grit to prep it, then base coat a pass or two on the light areas, then hit the whole thing with intercoat then try to blend it upwards, but I don't want to angle the gun too crazy or get too close to the top of the doors with the color. I'm using the same can of base I painted the car with so the color shouldn't be too much of an issue.
Also, for the last coat would you do a 1 to 1 with the color and intercoat to make it more transparent?
(pic for a better idea of whats going on)
