the paint that I rolled on the edges of my trunk are extremely thin. A few wetsanding passes with 800 grit will reveal the original paint layer. It probably has to do with my paint mixture, which is so thinned out that the vertical part of my trunk is very difficult to paint with the constant running.

What I have noticed about overthinning the paint is that the next layer that is applied is not thick enough to hide the wetsanded/prepped surface prior to rolling. I think I will thicken up the mixture of paint that I have, and roll on some super thick final layers prior to doing a final wetsand/polish. I've got about 5 thin layers so far and the surface still looks crappy.
