Just blow on the bubbles -- if you have a compressor, an air gun works awesome. (as suggested by the Hot Rod article)

After a failed first attempt, I have had really good success with laying down a first coat on a deck lid this weekend.

Used an air gun to hit the bubbles with -- straight down, 2 ft off, would flatten a 1/4 of the finish in one blast.




Will try that! We have a small air compressor.

I figure we just need to thin our mixture more like water. After a couple of hours now it levels out pretty nice, no roller lines. Some bubbles, but we'll sand down.

Before I paint, can I use mineral spirits to clean the paint again? It won't cut the paint correct?




When I did mine, I always wiped down with M/S after wetsanding and washing, would give it a wipe right before I started rolling the next coat.
