painting rivet hallow question

When riveting there is a perimeter hallow between the dimple and rivet (normal), what if the paint doesn?t flow into that area leaving a paint void the shape of a circle around the rivet perimeter.
The paint attaches to the skin and the rivet head but there are lots of rivets that have this ring of missing paint.
Is this a contamination issue where the paint won?t flow into the crack?
Is this an over or under rivet scenario?
Is this a paint surface tension issue?
Is this normal?
Looks terrible
:confused:
