I think he's spraying, aye. But the nominal thickness of the Rusto / Dulux etc. coats is greater than 2k etc. Atomising it through a sprayer would (in my head) make the applied coat thinner still.

 

Spraying should mean the coat dries faster, enamel paints are pretty inert unless you pour 2k / celly thinners on them or something.

You are using mineral thinners / white spirit aren't you?

brought the rustoleum thinners... like I say did nothing different on this coat to any of the others...

 

started rubbing back now, so try again

Good luck dude!

 

Extra meticulous this time round that it's all dry and clean I guess. Hopefully for the last time

plus a fly landed on this coat so it was jinxed anyway ha ha

 

Didn't just land and die, no it had to try crawl about :)

I had the same problem with moths, seemed to take great delight in skimming across the surface leaving little dust marks like some kind of insectoid bouncing bomb.
