Paint

« on: September 11, 2007, 09:22:16 AM »
OK Young'uns,   Who out there knows about base coat, clear coat stuff ?
      I have shot a lot of Emron, but never base coat,clear coat.  What am I getting myselve into other than a lot of  rubbing and a' buffing ?
      I will be using a true turbine HVLP with a top loaded gun set up to shoot a super fine deep green metalic like on some of the new cars.
      Should I panic or not ?? :lol:
