I'm painting a fender and fairing and they ordered the paint from the dealer. It's all acrylic urethane topcoat, pearl over black. Not what I was expecting, thought it would be urethane base and I wanted to use inter-coat clear to work the pearl to match. Would have been nice if they thought to order the hardener but not. The mix ratio is 8:1:2 and I'm wondering if I should use SPI clear hardener. The way I understand it the SPI clears are polyurethane not acrylic urethane. I do have some hardener for another paint that is acrylic urethane. The Harley paint reminds me of old House of Color candy which was tinted top clear, never liked it, too much build up.
Everything is ready, surfaced with SPI epoxy. Plan to seal with reduced epoxy, shoot colors, clear with SPI. Wet sand and reclear if it gets peely which I think is going to happen with all that pile up of top coat material.
Anyone sprayed this stuff?
