Re: Alkyd enamel with urethane clear coat

You can do what you are trying to with Alkyd enamel, but you have to let the Alkyd enamel dry, then wet sand it before you clear if you want the clear to stay on it. My racecar was done this way in 1993, and it still looks very good considering it has has been 14 years since it was painted. I spent all my money on go-fast parts, and skimped on paint, but most people think its a high-quality paint job.
