First of all, I have very little experience at painting. I'm planning to use a PPG metallic blue base coat and then SPI Universal Clear. I was told by the PPG distributor that the window to apply the clear is only six hours. I didn't think to ask him if this was for PPG clear or any clear. Is that window dependent on which manufacturer's clear is used or is that window a function of the base coat?
Also, I have a question about paint costs. To be sure this is the color I wanted, I just ordered one quart of the PPG blue and one quart of the activator. The price was $250. I expected to pay more buying just one quart vs. a gallon but does that sound high?
