rub down the area all over and blow over again should be no reaction then also spray a bit further back but more layers if its not silicone that is

Thanks i went in local spray shop and asked they said it was probable oil from compressor so it tried again with a filter in and added some antisil addative to the paint all seems ok .

oil or water in the air line

could also be "fish eyes" - small dirt/sust/silicone deposits wher paint cant stick so it causes a small isnald around the offending spec - need to degerease whole surface, tack cloth and then blow with air (1/2 depress trigger) before spraying.

Craters can also be caused by the thinners evaporating too quick or air being trapped in too thick amount of paint

you need to flat back and do again unfortunately
