Stop in for a cup of coffee

What took me a long time to realize when i started painting cars is that you really can take your time.

Most people including me at first would act like they are in a state of emergency once the paint starts flying, but in reality, the paint or clear will still flow out and blend even up to a couple hours depending on what hardner you use.....so really there is no reason to rush, you can very much take breaks and take your time

I was actually fairly relaxed and had a good pace. But with low flow from the gun it is much more tedious. Couple that with poor lighting (and poor vision) and it's really tough to be consistent. When the trigger on the gun came apart, I lost a few minutes in the middle of a coat and screwed up cause I overlapped too much where I left off and sagged/ran across the upper fender. Other areas have heavy orange peel...
