Tap the wet paint with the corner of a clean dry brush at a slight downward angle in the area you want to mist. This will blur the image just enough to appear fogged. YouTube Bob Ross for demo.

Why does your spray paint splatter?

There are two common causes that result in "splatter" when spraying paint. One is that the paint was not filtered (strained) when it was put into the pot. Those in a hurry pour in the paint, slap the gun on the pot, connect an air hose, and start shooting. Unfiltered paint can have things in that cause "blobs" or "splattering" to occur. This leads us to cause number two. Paint that builds up on the nozzle of a spray rig can cause the paint to come out in something other than a mist. Unstrained paint can easily leave "blobs" of paint in the nozzle, and then you have to stop and clean your rig. Paint in spray cans is strained before it's put in, but the user is still obligated to keep the nozzle clear of paint build up, and to keep that nozzle clean. Nozzles always get a bit of paint build up. It is unavoidable. Anything other than strained paint in a paint gun is an invitation to sloppy work. Work in a clean place, and strain your paint into the pot or reservoir. Keep the nozzle of your gun or spray can clean, too. Insure your paint is properly mixed and thinned when mixing your own finish. Spray cans are "ready to go" but users often do not agitate the cans sufficiently. Shake the darn can, clean the nozzle, and let your skill in preparing the surface and applying the finish determine the quality of the job. You have control over much of the process. Do not sidestep anything that the "best" painters would do, and you work will reflect your best efforts.


Can you paint wet on wet with acrylic paint?

If you are trying for total coverage it's wise to let the first coat dry completely. If you are intending to do the true 'wet on wet' artist's technique where the bottom layer is still totally mobile then you have to approach it a little differently than the oil painting technique. Acrylic paint drys very quickly compared to oil so you have to work very quickly, use thicker layers of paint and use a water mist spray to avoid premature drying; this can be quite difficult. Alternatively use an acrylic retarder added to the paint and this will slow the drying of the acrylic paint. Be careful though too much retarder will virtually stop the paint drying at all. Acrylic retarders are available for most brands of artists acrylic paint usually where they sell the paint. It is best to buy the same brand as the paint to avoid incompatibility.
