Painted brass door knob is very bumpy

November 6, 2012

Q. I painted a brass door knob and came out very bumpy I washed it with dish soap dried it. Rubbed fine 00 steel wool ⇦ on eBay or Amazon [affil link] pad on it primed it with self etching primer and let dry then painted with glossy black Rustoleum paint. When dried, it's very bumpy. How do I fit it to be smooth?
