1970 Chevelle Black Single Stage

I should have looked deeper before commenting.....shop roller wheels.....I feel better now. Stuff today does not cease to amaze me. But, beauty is in the eye of the beholder. As usual, fine work, Don!
 
That sure looks nice. Do you happen to know if the owner has a build thread somewhere? I like to see how he finishes that out.

Once the sealer was done it was time for the black single stage. I sprayed five coats in one session with my Iwata LPH400 LV 1.4. Urethane retarder in the last coat. Little more peel than I usually get but no significant wave as near as I can tell so far. I forgot how much work it is to cut and buff this black single stage. It takes a lot more effort than Universal. It didn’t help that I pushed it out into the sun for a day. I cut it with 1000 yellow, 1500 Tolex, 2500 Buflex, 8000 Trizact on a DA. No hard blocking clear for Donny… :D…. I used the interface pads recommended by Jim C. They are firmer than the 3M pads, I like them. Pics below are as sprayed and after compounding with ACA 510 on their yellow wool pad. I did a quick second pass of compound with their spider cut purple foam pad. It’s grippy and pretty aggressive. May give it a third pass before polishing with 520.

Please clarify if the Black Single Stage used was SPI .................or ?????

Don, I was rereading the beginning of this thread and you stated you sprayed 5 coats. Was that just so you had enough material to cut it down or is there another reason. Thanks.
