Hello,
Yes, these are the commom reasons for "Orange Peel" but Dan you have to
realize that under almost all conditions you will always get alittle "OP".
Even new cars off the assy line have it.
Too get the same efffect as the "Datster" you will need to wet sand. And
then a polish session. This final procedure is not easy and can easily mess
up your paint job if not done correctly. Basically it takes experience and
the right "touch". When it comes to paint jobs this is where the $$$ is
earned.
Make sure that you have at least 4-5 coats of color before the wet sanding.
Or if you are doing the Base Coat / Clear Coat have at least 4-5 coats of
clear. You will easily sand off a few coats in the process.
