Dave what did you thin with? My plan is to shot all the hard to reach area's with a hvlp gun and roll the rest, depends on how well the sprayed area's come out.

Thinned with good old mineral spirits, and I measured the dosage, it was about 8-10%. Still a pretty thick mixture, and it took 5 seconds to go from a stream to a drip.

That sounds like a great plan you have, for spraying small areas it's bearable. Like I said with the right spray and breathing setup it would be OK but in my opinion it's not worth all that work when you could just roll.

Here are some pics. There's a lot of orange peel in this paint job also, so I will becoming friends with my sanding block again.

Here's the area I fixed up before repaint..
BEFORE...


Which was almost completely covered by the single sprayed coat.
AFTER...


some other after pics. by the way I didn't paint the hood since I'm not planning to use it but it's already a uniform canvas white.

Some orange peel


and some orange peel combined with not laying down enough material




A single roll coat should take care of it now, after a few hours with a spray bottle and 800 grit.
