2 years ago I painted my first car, I swore never again, never say never.
I just finished painting my second car, I read everything I could find, stripped the car, prepped the body, brought the car and paint into the house over nite, warmed the shop and painted, lite coats, shaking the can repeatedly. On the last coat it looked great, no drips, consistent color all the way around, and a nice even shiny gloss, no orange peel. Then it dried, the pearl color is great, but there is no shine, it is almost a flat finish, I even repainted resulting in less shine.
I really want to know what did wrong, is there a way to fix it?
Could I use a can of clear coat to save this, if so, any suggestions?
