I have ran searches on here to try to answer my question but no luck so here goes.
Last week I painted the inside of the doors on my 68 Road Runner twice.....the first time I went down to the PPG dealer with a paint code and had base mixed. Once shot on the door it looked good until I shot the UV clear on it and the red really popped and as a result it was waaaay off. Second time I took an interior piece down and had them color match it. When I got home I mixed a tiny bit and applied it to the trim piece and it was perfect. I shot the doors again and it looked really good...until I shot the UV clear and the color changed again, not as drastically as the first time but it is still off. I figured after a couple of days of drying maybe time it would deepen up but it didn't. A friend was over yesterday and he thought it was because originally the interiors were satin and not gloss. That made some sense to me but I am still skeptical since much of the interior was SS and the same paint as the exterior. The dash will need to be more of a satin finish to avoid glare and Plymouth even used a "suede" finish on the dash. My question is should I add a flattening agent to the UV clear and try it again? Will that help the color?
