I am working on a small project right now where a few of the pieces are painted. I'm using spray paint (the canned variety) but I'm having trouble getting a good finish.
I haven't used spray paint much, so bear with me. When I try putting on multiple thin coats, I end up with a rough, sandy-feeling surface that never seems to smooth out. If I put on thicker coats, the paint ends up being rubbery and delicate. What am I doing wrong? Is it possible to get a smooth, durable painted surface using canned spray paint?
