Slight orange peel effect can be found on dealer show room floors. Metallic paints will not lay 100% flat. Aftermarket painters usually lay several layers of clear coat and then buff it down until it is even. For custom and repair paint, orange peel has several factors. The spray gun needs to be adjusted for spray pattern and spray volume. Paint usually requires a reducer that needs to be matched to current weather temperatures. Different brands of paint will require different settings but will usually have a recommendation for which size of fluid tip is needed on the gun. Most important is to test spray on paper or a practice steel panel before spraying on the actual work. Experience of the painter is the biggest factor.
