Guide coat on , will be ready for sanding tomorrow.

The fumes were not bad with this stuff, just smells like the rest of the stuff used up to this point, i.e. resin. Over spray is minimal, I am using a finishline III for the gel and the primer, and my sata nr2000 for the color coat.
I decided to stick with the monza red, will be shooting glaserit 22 line single stage. I had a couple buddies talk this stuff up so much I had to try it. $$$ about 300.00 more than ppg.

Re: Body work progress photos (garandfan)
The single stage paint is something I,m looking into right now as it may be easier to fix any defects and theres no time restraints if I do need to fix anything .....Is there any online sites how to or info on the single stage paints? ...$300 more , but no clearcoat to buy ..right

Thats 300 more than the total bc/cc system!!
I referenced just about all of the manufactures on the web, also peoples sites, just type in single stage auto paint, and you'll find tons of stuff.
Watch the american hot rod show, they just did a 56 with this stuff in coddington red, and it was stunning.
