Hi - I am painting a new two-panel interior door. Solid pine stiles and rails and I believe mdf core/panels. It came primed. My issue is that I cannot seem to avoid patchy highly visible brush strokes on the panels.
Using semi-gloss Sherwin Williams super paint w/ Nylon brush. Sanded after the first coat w/ 220 sandpaper and added Floetrol to the paint before applying the second coat. Hoping this would fix the issue but still seeing visible brush strokes that are uneven and patchy. Allowed to dry overnight before applying the second coat. Applied long lay-off strokes too. Attached is a picture trying to show issue.
The panels did feel a little rough but did not sand as they came primed. Was this the mistake or could it be an application issue? Feels like I cannot keep it wet and sucks up the paint even on the second coat.
Should I prime the panels and start over?
Thanks
