check that out. I haven't read it but they have some good info.

You are looking for a basecoat. Many brands to choose from (ppg, house of kolors, prospray, valspar, dupont the list keeps on going). All depends on how much you want to spend. Your basecoat will be reduced with a reducer. Different reducers for different tempetures. There are many good clears out there. It all depends on how much you want to spend. I personally like southernpoly urethanes universal clear. It mixes 1:1, costs $200 a gallon with activator. There are also different activators for different tempetures.

If you have any questions, feel free to pm me.
