Hi Everyone

[JackEb]

Thanks JackEb, I'll work on the blue shift. I'm hoping a little orange in the white will help with this

tiny tiny bit of orange, otherwise it gets a whole different colour LOL

off to a good start.......
I notice a bit of 'blue shift' in spots...... its what happens when you spray white over black. As you are probably just practising technique and getting a feel for it all, its not a big issue at this stage, just something to be aware of

Interesting... so a little orange will fix this?

tiny tiny tiny bit of orange, dip the tip of a toothpick in orange, (not dripping) and stir it though the white. you wont see any difference but it should work just fine. As Squishy has said, preserving the highlight is preferred.

I'll have to try that! Once I crawl under the deck and find my nozzle... grrr

Thanks Everyone,theres some very talented people here!
The info on blue shift is great and would've taken me a while to work out.Squishy mentioned preserving the highlights,do you mean not spraying black everywhere like a maniac or using another method?

 

[JackEb]

Not spraying paint everywhere like a maniac would be the non technical description for 'preserving highlights'

Try and keep whites white.

So, you mean like the way I paint?

Not saying it's wrong, just that you should be aware that it comes with challenges

 

[Jurien72]

I certainly have enough challenges at this point
