What happens here

Using an airless spray gun, apply a uniform, thin coat of Zinsser B-I-N Shellac-Base Primer over the entire surface, paying close attention to the areas with 'fish eye'. The shellac primer acts as a strong barrier against bleed-through and adhesion issues caused by contamination. The presenter specifically mentions using a spray application method for this step.

Goal: To encapsulate the contaminants causing the 'fish eye', a shellac-based primer is applied over the affected areas. This creates a barrier that prevents the contaminants from affecting subsequent paint layers.

how to resolve fish eye in your finish. So, I just sprayed a custom door, black on one side, brand new custom door, vinyl door. It got fish eye cuz of a contamination somehow that got on it. So, what I did to deal with it, I primed over the fish eye with BIN shellac primer, shellac-based primer, and then I reshot it. But, prior to doing that, I used Filmtech 320 plastic abrasive from Uneeda to sand out the volcanoes created by the fish eye. You don't sand them
