Hi, Im using a single stage urethane GM flame red color (Kirker). I am painting 3 coats of flame red single stage over a gray 2K primer. I am letting that dry for 24 hours and then I am dry sanding that with 800 grit (garage paint booth so I get some trash). Then I am clear coating that with SPI universal clear with three coats. I am working on one of my fenders (off the car) so I am inspecting it with my bifocals on high.
What I just noticed is that there are some dark streaks in the flame red. I am wondering if this is happening during my sanding of the single stage and the streaks are caused where the flame red pigment becomes too thin in areas or is there something else that is causing this? Ive already decided I am going to re-paint it with single stage then re-clear.....there are some dark streaks that are quite noticeable.
I have painted some smaller pieces of my car (front valence etc) with the same process above and not noticed the dark streaks. I am wondering if its just because I got more color on these pieces or?
Any help or insight is appreciated!
