Re: Satin / Flat / Matte Black Paint?

The kit came with a gallon of base, a quart of hardner and a quart of reducer. Which made a gallon and a half of sprayable material. It took pretty much all of it to do the one coat on the inside of the entire tube and two coats on everything else

The tech sheet said to spray two wet coats. We sparyed the hood first and had some issues with the gun that we had to fix and ended up spraying three coats on the hood.

Now looking back I wish I would have sprayed three coats on everything as the finish is still a matte finish, but it is just smoother with three..

I'm used to be really picky when it came to paint, but I have to keep in mind I'm building a hot rod style truck, not a show truck.
