Stop in for a cup of coffee

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...

Yup, i was taught in auto school to tilt your head so you can see the paint hit the surface from the side, preferably with a light refection where you are spraying.

Just make sure you tie your hair up because when you get clear coat in your hair, you basically have to cut it off, ask me how i know.

But yea, lighting is a constant problem even in a purpose made paint boooth because you can be your own shadow and blind spot.

Sounds and looks like you did a great job considering its not always so easy. :)
