Brief Description:  Painting Interior Panels

Sanded down the panels painted yesterday. Lots of sags and edges with too much paint on them, so required the use of 120 grit sand paper to level back out.

Reduced the number of panels to paint and started with a fresh batch of paint diluted about 5:1 with water, using the old style syphon gun purchased last year to help solve the problem with spraying the primer. When trying to spray a test spot with this gun, the paint didn't spray continuously but instead sprayed out in bursts followed by just air and then another burst of paint.

Gave up on this gun and poured the paint back into the HVLP gun with 2.5mm. This gun also sprayed in bursts rather than continuously, but not as bad as the other gun. Sprayed the panels using this gun but with light coats of paint.

I'm still not satisfied that I have found the right solution for painting the interior.
