Paint "am i making a big mistake"

Well,coming from a guy who has mostly only done custom paint jobs all my life,lol,any ways,on your lastafter your last full coat of gold base,tack it off real good.Then turn your pattern on your gun wide open,turn the air pressure up some,and fog some gold on while keeping the gun about 2 foot from the painted surface.If your not sure about tiger stripes,get some clear sealer,or mid coat clear from hok,so you can really see whats ya got.If its good to go,continue with the red.If its allstriped up,fog some more on.It will take a lot of fogging to get too much build up,but dont tack the surface after the fogging,it can cause streaks.Good luck
