Hi m8's, well started spraying my bits ( :lol: ) and after i had primed and let it dry, them moved onto spraying them but as i did, i noticed blotches appearing, what causes this and how to sort it out, i thought it might be the paint was not sufficently warmed up and if i rub it down then put another few coats of paint at correct temperature this will sort it out, am i correct in my thinking or wrong, any help\info appreciated thanks. :?

Hey. Have you used any cleaning/shining products containing silocone lAtely? This can have this effect on paint... I had it when I sprayed my wing mirrors!

I haven't no, but maybe previous owner did, i didn't use turps\white spirits to clean the plastic parts before i used the plastic primer, that went on ok though :?
anyway next time give parts clean to stop this hopefully thnx m8. :)

my center consol did that, in the end i used a heat gun to help it dry soon as it hit the plastic and plastered it on =D
