Sandpaper Finish

DO NOT PAINT a shower. 5 reasons to not paint tile, showers or sinks.
What happens here
The fifth and final problem was the rough, 'sandpaper' finish achieved, despite trying both spray and brush application methods. When spraying, the paint wouldn't gel out to a smooth, glossy finish; instead, it created 'flashing' and the spray cans 'spit' frequently, leaving a rough texture. Even after attempting the brush-on method, the finish remained rough in many areas. This rough texture, although looking white and glossy from a distance, would feel like sandpaper to the touch, making it difficult to clean and ultimately a poor-quality, unsatisfactory result for a shower or bathtub surface.
Goal: Explain the failure to achieve a smooth, glossy finish, resulting in a rough, sandpaper-like texture.
