Next question. I am painting an old Dodge B Body. I am using the grey primer. I have settled on the SPI orange. I plan to paint the under body the same as the exterior. I understand you can mix the clear with the base coat to get a quasi single stage for the under body, trunk and door jambs.
A number of questions to get me thinking and asking the right questions when I call.
1) any guesses to the number of gallons of base to paint the single stage items (under body, trunk, jambs)
2) any guesses to the number of gallons for the exterior and the number of coats it will take?
3) what clear do I use for my own restoration?
4) I don't see a definition for the different speed reducers for the base are they the same as the temperatures for the clear activator?
5) why is the clear activator in quarts only? Because once it is opened it has a short shelf life?
6) I now I see the base needs reducer and the clear needs activator. How do you mix all this to get the quasi single stage?
Thanks
Jim
