i sprayed my 71 mustang with rustoleum primer with hvlp gun. got a lot of runs not sure if the presure on gun was to high or my mix primer+ mineral spirits was wrong.( i painted my dodge dart and few other cars before and never got so many runs)
now i need to sand it down and get ready to spray top coat( sunburts yellow)

so my q. is. what ratio should i use paint/mineral spirits, and what best presure on gun?
thx lukas


I am wondering the same. I 've been experimenting with a old piece of hood and 4 coats later it still looks like crap. I am starting to think about spraying my car, If I Knew the Mix Ratio. This rolling seems like a lot of Work and I am Not getting the results that everyone is getting. I think I have a problem with the mix ratio. It would be Nice if there was a set ratio, instead of "Should look like 1% milk". Personally I Can't tell the difference between Skim Milk and 2% or Whole Milk for that matter.
