I see post all the time on boards and ads on ebay too that say a car was painted with 6, 8, 10 coats or more of this or that paint.
Huh? With the new paint today, do more coats of paint actually make it look any better? I put on 4 coats of yellow when I did my T bucket, but they were light coats and I had no runs. You could see through the second coat a little, the third would have been fine, but the fourth was just good insurance. Same with clear, you need enough to buff, but will it really look any better with 10 coats of clear? I used PPG DBC on the T Bucket and I'm going to use the same for the Mustang.
