I have had the same problem as you. Mine is caused by overspray on the curved surfaces, landing on the fresh paint of the last pass or so -- in other words, you need to hold the gun perfectly perpendicular to the surface, hard to do on small surfaces such as a gas tank or hood. I attempt to get around that by using a smaller tip. For HVLP a 1.3 mm, rather than a 1.5 etc -- Not a cure all, but it helps. That means more passes, thus more chance of messing up, but a 1.3 is not that much smaller than a 1.5. Conversely, I have a touch up gun with a 1.0, another with a 1.3; the 1.0 is a little narrow, and I sometimes miss the desired 50% overlap with it. The other, and best way is to get as much experience as Rod has.
