Default Painting Fiberglass

Just wondering...when fiberglass is painted. Will it always look wavy from one direction but perfect from every other direction.....if not what causes this?

sounds like somebody blocked it wrong. usually fibgerglass needs a good block in the ecoat itself and then spray some primer, then block it out again and it should be fine.
