oops---just finished one coat of primer and one coat of oil base sherman williams pro series paint on a nice kitchen island project i built for my wife out of poplar. its first class construction complete with raised panel doors, legs turned on my lathe, oak dovetailed drawers. but my finish was suppose to be buttery white semigloss. it has little bumps of paint--yuck.

I sanded out the primer coat, touched it up and moved on to the first coat of paint. i thinned the paint with paint thinner, but still got the bumps. I don't know if i would call it orange peel--its more like small globs of paint coming out of the hvlp. i have tried pressures from 20 to 60 and tried to vary the amount of paint and spray pattern.

it is running around 45 to 60 degrees in my shop so i may have to wait until it warms up.

does anyone have any ideas?

thanks,
ernie riley
