Re: Finally some progress...

That sounds like the Sherwin Williams stuff I played with before. I did a 5:1 flat to regular clear mixture and got a good satin look. It too sprays on wet and drys flat. I was just confirming that it was a clearcoat only (it needs to be sprayed over a color basecoat), not a flat single stage black paint like the Flatz colors.

When I was spraying the Sherwin Williams stuff, I had a hard time getting the reducer and air gun set right. I either had tons of orange peel or runs. Thus, I plan to have somebody else do the actual paint job (as much as I'd like to spray it myself)
