You didn't wet sand primer before you applied base/color coat?

I had to wet sand quite a bit of the primer before the color was put on. :shrug:

:lol: The trip itself might take a fair bit more than that, but I'll keep it in mind if I'm ever in the area!

I've yet to have a garage for my cars :( I would tolerate throwing a cover on them, if the paint were worth preserving; I just need a garage to get it to that point...
