Yeah it looks transparent but some of the parts are like that bright orange color. Its just the other half of the parts that came out like that and they have a spot where its mirror. I am starting to think I didn't spray it thick enough...

Haha I'm lost. But I will try that and see if I applied it to lightly or uneven and post up the results, and ill go from there.

Thanks for the help, you guys are great!

I had trouble tonight with the compressor. I believe there was water in the lines. I am going to get it out and spend a few hours at it tomorrow. I have a bunch of black to do as well so Ill keep you all updated on how it goes.

Thanks

That looks exactly like the candy orange from columbia coatings.

Skateboard trucks in candy orange...




Looks the same to me.

I tried it again today with the same results. I did the black after and it turned out perfect, except there was a lot of dust floating around in the shop but I expected that.

I called columbia coatings and they said that it was probably mislabeled and are sending me replacement to try.

Thanks for the help guys!
