sveb Posted March 26, 2006 Report Posted March 26, 2006 I finished laying 3 rattle cans of white acrylic lacquer over the period of a several days, and then shot 2 cans of clear. It seems like it's drying out with no problems other than I can see what looks like a rash, or "goosebumps" in a couple areas. Probably air bubbles or gas-off deep in the color coats. Hopefully i can sand them out. I'm gonna let this thing dry at least 2 months. Think i'll be able to get rid of the goosebumps if I let it dry out really well? I used Home Depot's Rustoleum lacquer, which was probably not the best choice, but it seemed to be pretty forgiving and easy to shoot. Thanks.. Quote
Nitefly SA Posted March 26, 2006 Report Posted March 26, 2006 i think what you're talking about is orange peel, does the texture resemble the skin of an orange? if so then that is very dcommon and should sand out just fine. Quote

Hopefully, whatever's trying to force it's way out will eventually stop once the lacquer cures. sveb Quote
