From what I see in your pictures, I agree that you have put it on a bit thick in spots, and also perhaps a bit too soon after the first coat. That is what that krinkle both on the fender and sag on the front valance look like. Wet-sand off the bad spots and feather out quite a bit. This will make the touch-up blend in better (This is important with metalflake). After the touch-up, when it looks good, let it cure well, then tack-cloth and give the entire panel one more, even, light coat to even out the flake in the finish all across the panel!I think you have figured it out! Patience! It's gonna look GREAT! that color!
Remember, when you put metal-flake paint on, the flakes will concentrate or "puddle" in dips and the bottom of curves if you apply it so thick that the paint "moves". Always comes out more even with a few lighter coats applied at the recommended intervals! Metal flake needs to be even! The subsequent clear-coat will give it the "depth" /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/wink.gif ! /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/thumbsup.gif /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/cheers.gif
