Default Re: What Paint do you Use?

That's what the boat is done with, spraymax 2part clear ( http://www.repaintsupply.com/sprayma...oat-p3685.html ) it is one of the few 2k paints in a can. For what I paint (small stuff) the set up, prep, and ventilation is a lot more easy on me having a product like that in a can. The base coat, and color are done in wicked colors createx

As far as clear coats, always read and find out what a suitable clear will work with base coats you are using. I have found out the hard way that not all paints/ clears play well with each other. But the waterborne stuff is pretty friendly towards all clears applied over after proper drying. I'm by far not a painter that should be giving advise, just from what I have done. And the boat is now going into its 3 year and looks just as new and shiney at first day. For stuff I've clear coated I've only used two part clears. So I'm not familiar with much else. But I may sand the yellow truck and clear it. Nice thing about waterborne is flash is quick and not really any limit on time another coat can be applied. (But this is from the paints I've been using. Mostly createx and thinned for airbrush or spot/touch up gun.
