Re: Noobie painting thread

In my experience of learning to paint, I found that a surface that hasn't been properly cleaned can result in an uneven color pattern, fish eyes, orange peel. I bought Eastwood PRE Painting Prep based on it's reviews and it does a good job of cleaning up.

I find the Harbor Freight reviews to be extremely useful and reliable. I bought the same paint gun as the OP and found it to do a good job. It did end up leaking at the trigger, but I had no trouble returning it for one that didn't have that problem.
