I have been unable to get to my shop for a couple of months but, am "back in the saddle" as is said. As some might recall, I shot SPI Universal clear on my '65 Barracuda and, 64 Fury back in the fall. The sprayability and gloss of the Universal clear are excellent even when compared to the PPG 2002 I was accustomed to spraying. I really like this stuff! These cars are begging to be completed and, to that end, I have spent the last week trying to buff them.
I have always used the complete 3M system. Tryzact 1500, 3000, and 5000 followed by Perfect 1, 2 and 3. When using 2002, 2 passed with 3m compound and I would have Very good driver quality gloss, 2 and 3 will always produce a show finish.
I am not having the same luck with the Universal clear. I can't seem to get rid of the haze. Is there a buffing window for this product? I am sorry I cut it... I could have sanded with 800 and shot 2 more coats of clear on each car in less time and expense. (and may still do that). I simply don't want to do this again on one of my other cars.
