This is my weekend booney bouncer. One Day I will get her a paint job, but until then just rattle canned her

STAY AWAY from dupli color clear as it will not take any gas on it AT ALL, it'll loosen up within milliseconds, but with a quality clear that stuff is cheap and will rival any b/c ...

I am totally agree with you. You are 100% good here that tried the pep boys Dupli shade prepared combined quarts and eliminated it with a two part clear...
I agreed what is said above!!!

Well Alexandro, I do have a comment. If what your painting doesn't require a near to exact color match, then go ahead, use whatever base coat your heart desires. Unfortunately, what I paint, I want the color to be precise and if need be, be able to be matched several years down the road so for me to use Duplicolor really isn't an option. If I had something that didn't require near to exact color match, I still wouldn't use Duplicolor. I know the product that I'm using now, I'm comfortable with it, my customers are prepared to pay the price for higher end base coat and clear coats so there is no need or want for me to change from what I'm doing....but if you want to use Duplicolor...go ahead, fill your boots.

When people look at cars after they are painted they always comment on the really good jobs and the really bad jobs. Nobody ever says "did you see that average paint job"...You decide where in the spectrum you want to be.

And if your REALLY cheap figure what 52 cans of rattle spray costs then run to the paint store and get something real...You'll have money left over
