Oh god, you're doing all the hard work and none of the fun work do you have access to a garage you could paint it in? -
Oh i got a quickle example. Here you can see hardly any specs of guide coat then you can see in the other photo it's much clearer after spraying it with W&G remover. I suspect i have a low spot here though -
I got a compressor just dont use it. I'm fixing every panel. Full car is getting a respray. I'm using dry guidecoat to not the spray. Similar to 3m stuff. I'll be paying someone to spray paint it professionally, I'm just doing prep. No rattlecan jobs. Yep I'll try get some photos up. I might actually have an example. I'll get back to you soon.

100% invest in a compressor. How many panels were you planning to paint? High quality paint rattle cans are super expensive and coverage is always depressingly low. Cost will add up very quickly.... I'd rather put the money into a compressor/gun then thousands of dollars worth of rattle cans (may sound crazy but at $50ish a can, you'll get into the thousands very quickly). I'm keen to see a photo of what your talking about. Please do. Also try the dry guide coat and compressor, keen to see how much of an improvement that is for you too. -
My suggestion would be, even with 6 hours on the engine already, take it back to a dyno and give it a good high load run in, then test again when warm. I've learned through experience that fuel glazing bores is very easy on a new engine but both times it was saved by pushing it harder. You just can't get that sort of good load on the road
