May 18, 20197 yr comment_4476 I thinned the top coater white with about 10% kbs thinner and painted out my hplv gun. The spray pattern was a little thick like small fabric thread looking paint. See the picture for an up close view. I was wondering is this the intended outcome or is it suppose to be smooth?

May 18, 20197 yr comment_4478 KBS Top Coater should come out smooth when sprayed. You can add some additional thinner. Also, get the air pressure up at the gun and be sure to apply even thin coats. Please report back to us after implementing those suggestions.

June 30, 20196 yr Author comment_4520 I went with a round 2 painting 2 layers of rust seal and 1 layer of top coater. For the rop coater, I gradually thinned the mixture until around 20% then it came it really well. Pics for reference Don't pay attention to the cracked paint, haha my mistake for not prepping the original paint more, but this cosmetic won't matter since this is a crash bar support.
