I'm Pissed

Post by sinister audio »

ok tonight im doing another late nighter and im painting part of a car. well im trying this new paint that one of my suppliers says all its great stuff its cheap and sprays like a dream. so i thought to my self i cant go wrong right. haha i wish it was like that. well i have been working from 9am-12:30 for the last week getting this car ready and tonight is spray time. well i got it all sealed up and ready for paint and its perfectly clean and everything. i mix up the paint just right exactly how they told me and i go spray this pratice board that i made up to try it on. i spray it and it looked really nice and i watch it for not more than 5 secs and the damn paint fish eyed on me. im 90% positive they gave me the wrong reducer and now i wasted a cup full of paint (a paint gun cup equals 1 liter not a cup) which is about 45 bucks and about 6 hours of work so im feeling pretty good and i wanna bash that paint guys head in with the paint can. so im going to sleep see you all tomorrow when im saggy eyed and bushy faced.
