There is a great chance that the tremclad is far more suseptable and shines better, but we are all trying that. I hope through my own tests that this "shine" can be reached.

I do think that Marq is right about the curing period. And the fact that there is no clear coat used as such with bc/cc or single stage. The shine matching that will be hard to reach. Time will only tell in Exit or Marq's case if this paint can be close or equal to a SS job.

That being said I am going into this with very little money and a fair paint job at the moment. If all else fails and my paint does not cure or does not shine after curing. Then it's live and learn. =)

But atleast I'll have that experience under my belt. Over the course of this thread I have learned a lot about painting, preping, techniques of other paint applications. Hell, your experiences are also an attribute to what I now know. And I thank all who participate in this thread.

If my outcome is bad or good, i wont stress. =)
