I'm just cursing foam "gloss paint" rollers after putting a coat of
paint on the bottom of my boat.

The finish is glossy like an orange - sort of shiny, but with lots
of little pits.


Mate of mine got the same result repainting his car
in the very early 70s never seen anything like it again.



In the 70's, 'orange peel' finish was almost the standard output
from most UK car factories :-).

the japanese soon showed us how to do it properly.
