Geeesh... i feel miserable. The base coat was perfect all around. I get to the clear and my gun starts jamming, but before i realised it was clogging at the tip i had adjusted the gun settings up.. (pressure and trigger feed) I get so Mad, I cant get a good wet coat of clear.. I take a rag and simply wipe the tip of the gun with the trigger pulled, then i start spraying. WOW its going on so fast and so goood its just too good to be true.. 3 min later, i look closer. RUNS GD RUNS ALL OVER MY PASSENGER DOORS.

Now i readjust the gun correctly and finish the job on the hood and driver side doors, continuously wiping the end of the gun to unclog it.

Im stuck with this crap on my doors until the next day.

I take 320 grit and drysand the %$^# out of it, back down to the blue. I then use 400 grit wetsand the doors and its lookin good again. Now I am able to respray and clear..
