HI there I have bare metaled my wheels and to cover the
small amount of rust that I couldn't get off i coated the metal
with metal ready from FROST. I then coated them in UPOL high
build primer (aerosol) rubbed down with 800 wet sand. I then
sprayed them with 2k (snowberry white) they came out really
good (gun gravity devillebliss) But they have a bit of orange
peel although good enough for wheels. my question is in a few
weeks time im going to do the roof and i would like to get a better
finish. Has anyone got any tips they could pass on for a better finish
straight from the gun ie less rubbing down at the end. Thankyou

generally speaking orange peal will be from either too low of a pressure when spraying or holding your gun too far from the panel....
hope that helps somewhat... maybe play around on some scrap metal before the roof???
