First coat of epoxy sealer is on. Wet the booth floor. Go over the panel with wax grease remover. Washed it with dawn earlier. Tac cloth the panel. Spray a couple test paterns. Shoot it.

Little stand in the booth.

Yeah it does have some striping in it. Overlap more as in closer together? I was trying to do the standard 50% overlap.
It was really hard to see the primer going down. I could hardly tell I was even laying anything down a few time. I might break down and get couple extra lights for the base coat.

yeah your right with the 50% overlap. its cool with the primer because your blocking it plus with your base being a different color youll be able to see better. looking good so far though. 
BTW i work at a body shop and i use the same gun at home, the boss buys SATA at work but they are way too expensive for messing around at the house.
