'''Orange Peel''' The most common paint defect, is caused by the paint being broken into small particles by the spray gun. It lands on the vehicle with little spaces in between droplets, leaving the texture, similar to the surface of an orange, behind. This is where the term "Orange peel" comes from. It is easily fixed by sanding the surface flat with 1200 grit sandpaper then polishing with a high-speed buffer and compounds.

'''Fish Eyes''' Fish eyes are a separation of the paint normally resembling the look of a fish eye. These are areas where the paint will not adhere thus making small craters in the paint. Fish eyes are always caused by contamination. The oil naturally present in your fingers is probably the number one cause of fish eyes. You will see most all good painters and body men wearing latex gloves similar to what doctors wear when prepping a car for paint. Wax, silicones, diesel fuel, and products such as Armor All can all cause the problem. The contamination is usually on the surface being painted but can also result from contaminated paint and contaminated air. Using a wax and grease remover, proper air filters and general cleanliness around the paint area should stop the occurrence of fish eyes.

'''Solvent Pop''' Solvent pop is tiny pinpoint size craters in the paint surface. This defect is produced when the top surface of the paint dries before the lower portion resulting in trapped solvents. The trapped solvents escape explosively through the dry skin of the paint leaving tiny craters. Solvent pop most often occurs because the job is being rushed either with flash times or the speed of the products. Most times they can be prevented by slowing down the painting process. Adequate flash time is essential to prevention as solvents need time to escape. Slower reducers and activators can also be used to prevent solvent pop as this too allows more time for the solvents to escape. Solvent pop can also be caused by excessive air movement which causes the top surface of the paint to skin over too fast.
