Bought some vinyl paint from CC and it spider webs like crazy (overspray), am I doing something wrong? Spraying it at around 25 psi, just painting small parts now scared to start on dash. :confused:

Does it need to be thinned?
Try shooting around 40 psi.

I used the SEM and Plastikote spray can vinyl paint on my dash, door panels and all other various trim pieces (seats were done with Molecubond vinyl dye). Cleaned parts first with Dawn dish soap, and then a quick wipe with Xylol / Xylene solvent to pull up any remaining dirt-grease.

Went from Tan to Black with no spider webbing and the look came out beautiful. I did 3 normal to slightly thin coats. Less hassle with the spray can IMHO.

Try to avoid painting on high humidity days, that can cause finish problems.

Are you spraying over ArmorAll? You haven't said what prep you used.
