    The car looks really nice shouldn't be a lot of sanding on that clear. I agree on the SPC products. I'm in the middle of a bare metal to paint project. Really like the epoxy and 2K primers. Ron. [​IMG]

    Barry's product line has won me over in painting, kinda like the good old days products are easy to use and work and are very reasonable ! Good by to the big giant paint manufactures ! Can paint a car again on a budget !
