Hi,
If this was a car I probably wouldn't care much and simply sand over it. All these little rivet heads in my project make sanding however very difficult / tedious.
I am using a Devilbiss Finishline 4 with a 1.5mm fluid tip and a #3 HVLP cap.
If you guys don't mind, it would be great if you could check out the pictures I attached. Frankly, I am a bit lost on how to improve the finish / reduce orange peel.
As directed by the manufacturer, I have set the gun to 23 psi at its inlet, almost full fan. I'm spraying from distance of about 8 - 10 inches, 2/3 overlapping passes. Temperature was around 75F.
It appears that the primer goes straight from either looking too dry to too heavy with significant orange peel.
What are your thoughts? Other parts I painted in the parts looked much smoother but I couldn't really tell what I did differently.
