If started to spray some of my interior in moonstone blue . If done the prima and a couple of coats of the moonstone but it doesnt look moonstone colour at the minute. It doesnt look blue enough does anyone no will the blue shine through more when apply the laqure? Or if I'm doing something wrong? Any advice would be a great help

It might take a few more coats to get the shade right.
Someone on here will have sprayed the colour before and be able to say if they had same problem
