Daniel,
If you are seeing the orange peel under florescent lights, you will
have very little orange peal outside in the sun. If you are painting
outside and still have orange peel, then I do not know what's wrong.
You may be using too fast of reducer and the paint is drying too fast.
What temperature were you painting at. What type of paint.
