I tend to agree. My streaking was fine, and the inconsistency would be fine also. Color is tricky. I bought the shade of olive I wanted for a final look. Should have gotten something that was more green. Over the linen solartex it is a bit more brown than I was looking for, but it will work.

On the good side, I just pulled it off of the 2x6, wadded it up, stretched it, balled it up, scuffed it and heated it a bit. The paint stuck.
