I primed my case using grey Tremclad, It felt dry but i don't think it was fully dry(i think it was sitting outside for a couple hours), when i sprayed it with the color i am using the grey and pink mixed together and just started to run down the case, I took a rag and wiped as much of the paint off the case as i could. i let it sit for a little while and i just primed it again(this time i will let it sit over night). Now its not very even and you can see where the paint didn't wipe off from the first attempt. How can fix it so that when its all finished the case will look even. Thanks.

go to Canadain Tire and buy the automotive sandpaper. Start with 1000 grit then use 2000 grit.

What primer/paint are you using? Are they the same company.

If you goof up then just stop and wait a week then sand it.

Thanks slink, I'll go to crappy tire tomorrow and get some sand paper.

Primer = Tremclad(one made for metals)
Pant = Beauty Tone Industrial(Tremclad doesn't make Pink paint that i can find)

I believe Tremclad primer requires 24 hours before recoating. Also it was too cold today to dry. It hardens by freezing but doesn't dry.
