    not sure what you mean....

    i used my sata jet and a dewalt compressor with a inline water filter.....


    paint color is obsideon black (g35 black very very little metal flake, like almost none) sherwin william 7000

    clear is sherwin williams hpc15 air bake. this is the best product ive ever used and is well worth the money.... it shoots just like normal but drys in a matter of minutes.... literally you can wet sand and buff in 20 minutes.

    i almost had a sag on my lower rocker because well my driveway doesnt have lights and i couldnt see from the shade..... well i shot it heavy in a spot from trimmin the wheel well and i saw it start to head south..... but then it was like FREEEEEEZE! and thats it..... didnt even curl into a sag or anything.... sweet stuff.

    the clear is like 300 a gallon but you use less paint. about 2 cups covered my car....

    i panel painted the front end and the rear bumper.... then masked the quarters and doors.........

    i sprayed and did most of the bodywork in one 10 hour day.

    again with the clear you spray one coat then hit it with a second heavy(final coat) immediately after the first coat then your done. after about 7 minutes or so trash started to fall on the car like dust and bugs and so on....... but too late clear was hard

    thats exactly what i was wondering, I thought maybe you rolled it on then buffed or whatever some people do, but damn that looks good for an outside job, I expected you to say you wet-sand then buffed it out. very nice though
