I live in Florida (high humidity and temperature) and i'm having trouble getting my models primed smoothly. They always have at least a slightly rough texture. Due to my living situation i cannot use an airbrush, so i have to make the best of a rattle can. At this point i dont know if im being paranoid or this model is actually rough. I primed in 80 Degrees F and 40% humidity with no wind.

Get in a bit closer

#

Use quick short blasts, starting and stopping off of the model
