Hi folks, I'm having a issue I hope I can get some advice on. I'm a complete novice at this, so I'm practicing spraying with aerosol nitro lacquer on a spare black pickguard. I've noticed a very weird issue.
I have my pickguard propped vertically on a paint stick (properly prepped, sanded cleaned, etc). As I spray left-right from top to bottom, I noticed that the bottom looks fine with regular orange peel. However, there is significant overspray further up the pickguard towards the top. The further up top, the worse it gets.
So, I tried the reverse, spraying left-right but from bottom to top. Now the top part looks fine and the bottom has overspray. It seems to me like the nitro aerosol (Minwax Aerosol Lacquer - Clear Gloss), may be drying too fast? I could be completely wrong here, so any advice or insight is appreciated.
I'd like to know if I'm doing anything wrong before ordering more expensive aerosol lacquer online. Thanks!
