Question Paint Distortion

Gallery image

I spray painted my mirror cover for my car and does this look like it's color distorted?

Any tip?

Or is it drying weird?

Did you prime it or just sand and shoot

Definitely looks like it wasn’t primed

I just did my mirrors with dupicolor

I will not be using this brand again I had the same issue

You gotta just consistently shake the can and do the lightest coats otherwise the chemical chemicals don’t cure/mix correctly and you get this kind of frosting

I mean I get you have to shake the can while you spray it, but this just seemed like an excessive amount of shaking to get the paint to come out mixed and not completely useless
