    Re: Tips for checking white paint for high spots?

    Can you control; the lighting where you are applying the coating?...I.E. a garage

    I you can have it dark in one area and light in another (as seen in the photo)....you can have control to see the paint very easy




    Dark behind you in a garage looking out to the light outside is a big help







    It's all about the "angle of incidence" rule

    Wow thank you. Yes that is often how I check my work. The sun and clouds decide a lot of how effective my checking is.

    Thanks for that post
