yeah, I've learned the hard way that you are much better off to spend time taping up right, (and using the right kind of tape to mask with), rather than spend twice as long doing touch-up, and 'hide-outs' where the paint bled, ran or some other horrible thing. I absolutely hate doing touch-up work on a cabinet, and try to get it so I have none to do after a re-spray. A little thing here or there is ok but more than that means the preparation just wasn't good enough. Anyway, it's always good to get to this point and from here the clear coating is a breeze.
Yep .. know exactly what you mean Mark .. ran into probs with the repaint on the Gulf Stream I'm doing at the moment.
Really should have stripped one side back and started again rather than trying to touch it up , but it doesn't look too bad
