Man, I hope where I have drips isn't a problem. That's all I need...

Ahhhhh, so I was on the right track. Different gallon, different color.

thats alot of paint for one truck you probably do have a solvent pop problem. with that much paint you might be able to cut and buff it away. i would try it in a spot you wont see much. being your first paint job i'll assume that your going to be i unfamiliar territory here might find someone that is and let them see if it will help. i hope for your sake that the last gallon was the same color.

Very observant, I think you are on the right track as a possibility here. I just don't like the new gallon of paint being mixed up, and THAT is the one that is different.

yea the guy at the paint store could have grabbed the wrong toner and caught it the decided not to waste the rest of the mix and just finished hoping no one would notice.

It'll be interesting to see. I put on 4 coats, waiting the required 15 minutes between coats in order to have a lot of paint on there since I've never sanded and buffed before.

Generally speaking, I think it will look okay for a driver. A fair amount of orange peel and some drips, of course. Doubt I'll ever make a living as a painter...

you should have more than enough material to work with when sanding to buff. cool truck btw
