Well, the first coat went pretty well, but I had somewhat disastrous results after the 2nd coat.
I had to pretty much sand all the new paint off, and even some of the original finish down to bare wood, and now I need to start over.
You need to look at the big pics to understand what it looks like, here's a link to one:

I cleaned the board off before spraying the first coat, and the first coat looked fine. It had a couple spots that were a bit thin, but it was a nice smooth looking and feeling finish. I laid a 2nd coat down, thinking it would thicken up in the areas where the first coat was light.
Did I lay down too thick a coat? Did I need to clean or sand between coats? Too cold? The shop was the temp recommended on the can, although it was towards the cold end. I allowed extra dry time because of this.
I also used good quality 'rust oleum' satin white paint, not the cheap stuff.
I need to do a bit more sanding before I try again, need to restock paper before I sand again.
