Thoroughly impressed with this clear on first 2 jobs. One black pearl Nissan hood and fender, and one black Mercedes 1/4 panel and bumper. Used epoxy, turbo primer, epoxy sealer, and DBC base. I mixed 12 oz. for the Nissan, and 16oz. for the Mercedes, and had 2-3 ounces left on each. The second coat goes on quicker than using a clear with flash times because it is still so wet. Clear sprayed super easy, matched factory texture perfect, and had really nice gloss with not even a hint of any dieback. Mercedes I didn't buff and still looked nicer than factory. Nissan had 3 or 4 pieces of trash in hood so i buffed it next morning. Buffed good, a little harder than universal, but that was expected. Overall, I'd rate it 10 out of 10 so far. PS, I forgot to add that I pulled the Nissan out of the booth after 1 hour, and left it outside while I was doing the Mercedes. The weather was cloudy in the mid 70's. Next thing I knew the sun was out, so the black hood and fender sat outside in the sun for probably 3-4 hours. Still not a hint of any dieback or solvent pop.
