Ya know Lyle, that didn't turn out bad at all man. You need to mask the car off and go over the roof again but that's REALLY easy. Your coverage isn't even. Just put the whole car in a plastic bag with a square cut out of it to expose the roof and mask it off. Then just shoot the roof. I did that with my Maverick and it worked out great......no overspray on any of the rest of the car. Then let 'er sit for a few days. You really did a great job for your first try bud. Really.

Thanks! Means a lot. Gotta hit the hood again, too, and the left side, rear quarter panel. The 350 is indeed a different critter.

Remember.....it's a broad coverage tool. Learning to work with it as such doesn't take too long.

Ain’t happening. Maybe the needle should be opened more.

Yeah...If you're spraying with the fine tip then it'll cover when you open it up but not as good as that medium one will .

You did a good job despite whatever difficulties you had Lyle. You've just gotta stick with it man. You're learning in one try what took me 3 years of trial and error to learn.
