How do I fix this?
 
3 Attachment(s)
ok so I got my Blazer back from paint AGAIN and it still looks horrible. As far as I know everything was primered and he blocked it again after the first time I took it back to him. I dont know how he could have made it look so bad, I've seen a lot of the guys work and all of it looks great. Guess thats what I get for dealing with a friend :rolleyes: . Anyway here is what it was painted with.

Any ideas for me? I know next to nothing about body work so if you wouldnt mind spelling everything out for me clear as possible that would be great ha ha.

I'm feeling for ya dude. Nice ride, but with that paint job, I would roll it back several feet, and close the door.
:(

That's the first thought that occurred to me.

Don't laugh... a couple hours of reading the Moparts "paint job on a budget" thread and you can make that rig look ten times better with little more than $100 worth of rollers and Rustoleum.

Looks like he didn't spray it wet enough. It went on dry so it's not blending.

For the moment, I would hit it with a Scotch Brite pad. If you sand in long horizontal strokes it will smooth it out and give a more even finish.

I agree with N2truxs. Way to dry. Your friend probably did not what the hell he was doing. Not enough reducer. That stuff is easy to spray. I paint everyday. I would get my money back.
