Re: best steps for three foot deep paint job
by 'adding color to the clear' I think maybe they meant the other way around. Many people shooting Single-Stage Urethane (meant for use without any clear) can get better shine (by far) and better protection by adding 50% clearcoat into their last coat of color. This does work and is common, even back to the lacquer days I believe...
Better still would be basecoat / clearcoat all the way using the recipe above.
Also a tricoat or Kandy paintjob can have that mile-deep look depending on color you want. Depth can also come from the bodywork being perfect and blocking-out your clear. I can't find the pic online now though...
