Hard to tell what is going on in the photo (I'm not an expert sprayer anyway but I do have plenty of experience with paint), and we still don't have enough info on the primer, but it looks like dry spots as in primer too thin (on the high spots in the wood texture) to keep finish from getting sucked into the wood.
Multiple primes were used on multiple, 9 - 2'x2', test panels. Primers used were, Wall and Wood from SW, Advance primer from BM and Duralac from Lenmar. Two coats of primers for all panels. Every panel has a few coats of paint and each coat is given 24-48 hours to dry. Then they are sanded with Granat 320 paper by hand or by machine. Each coat after sanding is as smooth as a baby's bum, as they say.

So uneven absorption is pretty much impossible?
How does the same finish mixture look 24 hours later when applied by brush? I know, another delay to find out...are there some spills on a surface that is close enough to similar?
I'm just wondering if it's a paint/pigment issue rather than a spraying issue. All 4 gallons from the same supplier?
