My thoughts were to rough up the block with 320 paper and reshoot it. Has anyone shot over VHT rattle can paint with Bill hirsch and had good results?

I would also think red/maroon scotch brite would help you scuff everywhere and form to some of the shapes. I would want to make sure that it is completely scuffed everywhere. Before you sand, clean with prepsol and the again after you sand right before paint. Oil would be your enemy i would think....
