I hate painting, I always get runs and anything I paint looks like a waterfall.

Might look into a roll-on in the future. I feel like my spray job would have been perfect, but as soon as i got done sanding and was ready to spray the wind picked up. Then i noticed the grass cutters/ dust makers were getting close. So i really rushed through the painting process

That may be the first time anyone has used the words "bundt cake" on here. Bravo.
