Re: Base Coat/Clear Coat or Single Stage

The color of your primer makes a difference if you are spraying low hide paint. Buy high hide paint, it takes less paint. If you can see primer through your paint, you haven't put enough on...thus, buy high hide paint.

You could spray it in single stage and then clear it while it's open. This will give you more DOI (depth of image) and give you a finish that you can buff.
